- Freaky control characters showing up in Firefox on Macs.
- They show up on nothing else -- not in Safari, not on PCs.

There's always problems doing copy-pasta from word processors. Most notably, when Word or Open Office do double quote substitution.

Word:
Tools | Autocorrect Options | Auto-format as you type (tab)
Uncheck: Replace as you type "Straight quotes" with "smart quotes"
