You are right, I've no argument with things stated that way!
Now on to the important stuff! Regards punctuation, I'm at a loss on this one, as other than ASCII, I've no way of entering the mystery marks into the message. Perhaps you may mean my overuse of HTML? Things like mdash, hellip, ldquo and rdquo with the occasional ndash are pretty much second nature to me. Note that here I've used them without the preceding ampersand and the trailing semi-colon. If these show up as question marks then maybe I can use you as a g-pig to test the numeric version to see if that works on your side of the fence? Could you try adding the decoration to this stuff in your environment and see what happens?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
