 * I actually fixed the problem, although it might not be the most correct/elegant
   solution.
 * In wp-includes/feed-functions.php
 * `function get_the_title_rss() {
    $title = get_the_title(); // $title = apply_filters('
   the_title', $title); $title = apply_filters('the_title_rss', $title); return 
   $title;
 * Commenting out that line changed the offending “right single quotation mark” (
   aka ’) into the straight up and down apostrophe that apparently magpie can handle
   no problem.
 * Before I started digging in the code I was playing with the encoding, and was
   in for a HECK of a surprise when I changed it to UTF-16.
 * Moshu – The blog itself isn’t really up yet but its located at [http://www.tradersguideoftexas.com/blurb/](http://www.tradersguideoftexas.com/blurb/)
   and to get the headlines into our main page I’m using RSS, the page that is displaying
   the RSS feed right now is [http://www.tradersguideoftexas.com/wordpress.php](http://www.tradersguideoftexas.com/wordpress.php)

 * I’m having the exact same problem, thats uncanny. In my RSS feed the title has
   the curlier apostrophe, while the description has the straight up and down one.
 * I’m using magpieRSS to parse the feed, and get the question mark instead of the
   apostrophe as well. Any progress on this?
