You can't have too many apostrophe's

Paulfolbrecht,
OK. So you are obviously better educated then the rest of us', and you're pointing out the apostrophe abuse only show's that your self-important. Your like those hedge fund's who tryed to bring down Crysler - alway's concerned about the rules and not about whats really important in life. Its hardworking American's which determine how the language is used, not linguistic snob's like you!

Boy that hurt... :^)

And Paul, shouldn't that be "grocers' apostrophes"? :^) or worse "greengrocers apostrophe's"?

These thread replies are more like text measaging than anything else and are answered by more than english speaking peoples. I do not think you would answer questons in another language other than Engish very well. Even english in the UK is differant, most words have many differant meanings and depends on content for the meaning of the word. I am Dyslexic and have issues spelling any how. I hope my spelling and grammer is ok. :-)

hi paul:

is this an audio forum ? what is the relevance of your thread. your statement is an opinion. hence, it is unimportant.

I didn't bother to read the full OP or thread before I posted...are you asking about the possibility of owning too many copies of Frank Zappa's recording entitled, "Apostrophe"?

;-)

I'm liking all these responses!

And, YES, I did ironically make a grammatical error in my post - oh, the tastiness of the irony! It should indeed have been "grocers' apostrophes".

(Seriously, thanks for pointing that out.)
