Frank Sheeran:
I get the digest of the group once or twice a day as traffic warrants, and
I read it on the Google gmail web page on Google Chrome as the browser.
I notice certain posters, and I hate to single out anyone but for
instance Nigel
Redmon, often become quite hard to read with all apostrophes turned to
question marks:

frequency
Am I the only one with this problem, and is there a setting I should use to
take care of it?
This would be a character encoding problem, and I don't know of any setting
that you could use to take care of it. I don't see that problem, which is
surprising, because I use a most ancient email client and plain text (not
HTML) mode. In the particular example given here, Nigel's message appears to
be using the UTF-8 encoding, allowing anything UTF-8 aware to render
typographically correct quotation characters.
But... I don't subscribe to the digest version of the list. I wonder if the
digest version of the list simply munges together all the messages, with all
their potentially disparate character encodings and declares it all to be
something as basic as US-ASCII. That would certainly explain the symptoms here.
