when some articles are transcibed over, the use of apostraphe's and quoation mark's causes that reaction. it depends on the platform/server someone is using to send the message in general. some servers have issues reading things in quotations

<<Another wet summer has meant a “dreadful†year for butterflies, according to a conservation expert.>>

 

Just curious. Why do quoted articles do this repeatedly when quoted here on the list? What’s going on? Just curious. Cyn

I can vouch for the cabbage white.. about 100 babies are eating my veggie patch clean.. I'll leave them, it's only fair just hope they respect me and leave my beans alone! lol My buddlia definately attracted lots of visitors but i'm not knowledgeable to tell you about the species i saw. Fingers x'd they pick up next year and that we have a late summer! , Peter VV <swpgh01 wrote:>> Another wet summer has meant a “dreadful†year for butterflies, according to a conservation expert. > Matthew Oates, of the National Trust, said that rain and wind this year and last had harmed many species. although others, including the cabbage white, had had a good summer. > Mr Oates has been surveying British butterflies for a series being broadcast this week on BBC One, on The One Show. “Butterflies are very fragile and succumb to heavy rain and strong winds.

With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.
