Yeah, as long as my page shows up properly, if a link list has a recip table that won't validate, the burden is on him/her.

These chars are: & which needs to be & in your html, ' needs to be " and a few others that you need to be aware of. If you're using php for text output you can use htmlspecialchars (http://us2.php.net/manual/en/functio...ecialchars.php) to take care of the encoding for you.
I always use & and other special characters if I want that character to actually show up on the page so I think I'm OK with that.
