[Evolution] Strange result from copying

[Jonathan Ryshpan <jonrysh pacbell net>]

I intended to copy a small piece of text from the Firefox to a message being composed, namely (the result of copying from Firefox to Vi, then from Vi to Evolution):

Biden took aim at those who would lower prices by breaking the buying power of the working class. “If car prices are too high right now, there are two solutions,” Biden said. “You increase
the supply of cars by making more of them, or you reduce demand for cars by making Americans poorer. That’s the choice. Believe it or not, there’s a lot of people in the second camp.”

This is what got pasted to evolution (the result of copying directly from the NY Times; copy and paste; and highlight, center-clidk yield the same result):

Any ideas.  I fear (and hope) that this problem can't be reproduced.
