 The string:

 {{{
 <p>I also remember the line in "Casey at the Bat" when he struck
 out---"There is no Joy in Mudville!!!"</p>
 }}}

 is converted to this in WordPress 3.3.1:

 {{{
 <p>I also remember the line in &#8220;Casey at the Bat&#8221; when he
 struck out&#8212;&#8221;There is no Joy in Mudville!!!&#8221;</p>
 }}}


 Seems to be what should be an opening quote that follows an Em dash is
 always converted into a closing quote.
