I demand an explanation of why this organization isn't called England's Apostrophe Protection Society. That's an abomination.

I bet if Rich Scanlon argued for the apostrophe, the board would have voted for it!

I have found out at college, some people are just stupid and they like to gripe about the dumbest shit possible.

"Scholars Walk"
I see a bit of humerous irony there.

Anyone from the Apostrophe Protection Society of England would have a fatal meltdown if they ever visited Tennessee....I think the apostrophe is the state bird down here.

If they named it the Scholar's Walk, would that mean that only one scholar at a time could use it? I think that both of their options are wrong, and it should be the Scholars' Walk.

The answer is easy to see.
The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe. I told him no no no....... Dinny |

Dear Mister Language Person: What is the purpose of the apostrophe?
Answer: The apostrophe is used mainly in hand-lettered small business signs to alert the reader than an "S" is coming up at the end of a word, as in: WE DO NOT EXCEPT PERSONAL CHECK'S, or: NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ITEM'S. Another important grammar concept to bear in mind when creating hand- lettered small-business signs is that you should put quotation marks around random words for decoration, as in "TRY" OUR HOT DOG'S, or even TRY "OUR" HOT DOG'S. -- Dave Barry, "Tips for Writer's"
