in thread Need a regex to replace incomplete html entities

If you're so certain that the two accounts are run by the same person, maybe you care to share the additional deep knowledge you have?

Another, very trivial explanation could be that two different persons got the same homework tasks, or that this task has become a common hiring question, or that some common "data provider" (say, Wikipedia, or Amazon or Wordpress) produces such broken HTML since the release of a new version and that they are trying to solve the same problem.

    kind of duck typing.

    Two different persons insisting to get a sed solution while asking at perlmonks doesn't seem very likely.

    Thanks for clarifying the criteria! :)
