There is nothing like an overzealous email client that defaults to changing 
ASCII quotes to curly versions when the information being transmitted is a 
bunch of shell script or C source.

And more on topic it appears that Tidy is trying to be helpful. My experience 
with such things is pretty much always bad. Microsoft Excel is terrible that

We are on the verge of HTML-5. Does any one know if such things as &xxx; are 
going to get deprecated in favor of unicode?
