What browser are you using? Most browsers include a spell checker, right?

I like the typos - they add a little flavor to the posts.Though of course I am a bit obsessive about correcting my own, because my posts have to be perfect in their proofs.

QuoteOriginally posted by: Cuchulainnit'sYes, I did make that mistake a few days ago, but I was on my iPhone and when I went back to correct it later, could not remember which thread it was on.Sometimes it's just too much trouble to correct these things.A thin line between high editorial standards and neuroticism. Of course, I would not leave it there in print.

QuoteOriginally posted by: tagomaSingle quotes are replaced with question marks. Grrrrrrrrr!!!!!!It seems to be a problem with unicode vs. plain ASCII characters. The single quotes that are affected are the right- and left-curled quote marks, not the ordinary straight ones.
