Lets' see what I get. Don�t' tell me! A Curly quote. But it also failed to
correct "lets'". If I look under Tools->Autocorrect in Entourage, and type
"dont" into the "replace" box, it locates that string in the list. And lo
and behold, the replacement string contains a curly quote!
The mystery is how George is getting straight quotes. The autocorrect
replacement string needs to be changed.
