Single vs double quotes

["David O'Brien" <obriend -at- mincom -dot- com>]

At the risk of starting a war, I'd be interested in a few opinions on when
and where to use these.  I've always considered singles to be either
apostrophes, possessives, or used in cases where doubles are already used,
eg., quotes with speech, etc.  I wouldn't, for example, consider singles as
'normal'.  I would, however, consider doubles as "normal".

thanks
David
