Re: Apostrophes in Acronyms????
My understanding is that the apostrophe is used 2 ways.....one to show possession and the other to show missing letters. In possession situations there are no missing letters.
I think one of the problems of the apostrophe is today's school system and dumbing down of the english language. The other serious detractment for the use is the internet itself where everything is typed fast and 'close' to correct for understanding only. How many times have we seen a message left on this board that uses short forms of words to save typing....obviously a texter would do this type of thing mostly but many shorten words that weren't meant to be shortened so.
It's actually sad to see but hasn't driven me around the bend. It just lets me know that I've been better edjumacated.

All you have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to you.
