I recently educated myself on the correct HTML way to do ‘single’ and “double” curly quotes, as well as em and en dashes: (‘—’ and ‘–’). I think I can even remember the rules about which dash goes where (a good explanation can be found in this A List Apart article, although it recommends using the numerical entities I can never remember). I doubt the character entities I'm using work in all browsers. On the other hand, I don't really care that much. This is my journal, cross-browser compatibility be damned.
