Is the closing smart quote also a circumflex?

Hi Roger and Everyone else,

        In true OpenBook fashion, your submission of Imago has smart quotes.
Whoever takes this book to proofread will need to change the smart quotes to
regular quotes.  This problem is not apparent to anyone using only speech.
That is why I mention it.  Also, OpenBook uses these smart quotes routinely.
I don't know if Bookshare's tools have learned to deal with this problem.  I
think I remember someone saying that that is either in the works, or fixed,
but if not corrected, smart quotes read as an a circumflex in the daisy
books.  I have no idea how munched they are in the brf files, but this
change from smart quotes to regular quotes is easy to do in word.  

Just thought I'd mention it.  Roger you didn't cause a problem, it's just an
issue that OpenBook has for everyone.

Mayrie
