Well, I almost always use chrome. I see lots semicolons, dashes and quotes that aren't rendered correctly on different sites but the only site I consistently remember is the "print this" page on NYMag, i.e.: [link]
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

If people would just use UTF-8 everywhere, it wouldn’t be a problem. But for a place with a workflow like the NYT, there are probably at least a dozen places where the character encoding could possibly get screwed up along the line.

This is the thinking that is the problem, right? Someone who is composing a blog comment in Word doesn't know what UTF-8 is. But the six or seven browsers, you would think, could recognize smart quotes.
ETA: I don't compose things in Word, just tired of seeing code for nonbreaking space and whatnot.

Speaking of which -- why in 2010 can't all browsers render all punctuation marks at all times?
Try having everything you do use accents. Nightmare!
