Yep. In Safari, activate Debug menu. Then export bookmarks, and import into Firefox.

Duff-Man says...or, if you are not sure how to activate the debug menu, you can use a nifty little program called Safari Bookmark Exporter (http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/19266) which will do the trick nicely....oh yeah!

Open Terminal, type in:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
Restart Safari, use the debug menu to export your bookmarks.
In Terminal type in:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 0
Restart Safari again and it will be back to normal.
Open Firefox, import those bookmarks and away you go.

Thanks Guys, especially Duffman - the Safari Bookmark Exporter not only exported from Sarafi but imported into Firefox completely automatically.
