It looks like nearly all of those are on the list because they use the angled single quote, character code 146 (’), versus apostrophe which is character code 39 ('). The last two are using a bullet, character code 149 (•), in the title. I've fixed all of the titles to use the standard single quote and replaced the bullets with hyphens (-). Both the quote and bullet usually happen when someone copy/pastes a title from Amazon. Marc Kupper (talk) 01:34, 20 Jan 2008 (CST)
