[EventCalendar] ec3_get_calendar() (was ec3_get_events() ) not translating ampersands into character entities

[ejm]

What exactly am I looking for with the SQL " SELECT post_title FROM
wp_posts;"? 

Is it this sort of thing?

RECONCILATION – TELECONFERENCES

There are a number of instances of this character "–" in the titles.
Is there some way that I can globally fix those using phpMyAdmin? Or
is it unlikely that they are what is causing this strangeness?

-E

P.S. It has to be something to do with the way I have installed either
wp or ec. This strangeness is also reproduced on my other wordpress
(the one that I author) etherwork.net/blog/  I just changed a title to
include an ampersand instead of the word "and".  Look for "apple &amp
lavender combination revisited" in the source code. Note that there
are two spaces between "&amp" and  "lavender" in the title spec. Is it
possible that ec is changing the semicolon into a nonbreaking space?
