  Why can't I use an apostrophe in a URL? HN seems to be stripping it out, so couldn't link to the Wikipedia page without a crufty "%27" showing up... Interesting. It looks like ASCII character 27 is supposed to be valid within URIs according to both RFC 3986 and RFC 1738 (via [0]). Maybe it's a simple component of a system for preempting SQLi on other sites via links from HN?
