Am I the only one who basically gives up reading the text when it has that symbol gibberish? I must be getting old!

Deciphering the bad characters is seldom worth the effort.
I skip it, too. I’m no programmer, but it seems to me it shouldn’t slow things down much to put a “straight quotes” function immediately after “preview” is clicked, followed by display of the intended post in the preview window. It’s a kludge, yes, but better than nothing.

“symbol gibberish”

yeah I forgot to correct it. It’s a short enuff excerpt that I could have.
