The Demise of The Apostrophe Protection Society


The Demise of The Apostrophe Protection Society


      The Apostrophe Protection Society was founded in 2001 to, as reported by the BBC, “defend the ‘much abused punctuation mark’, waging war against advertisements for ‘ladies’ fashions’ or the much maligned grocer’s’, used to sell apple’s and pear’s.” 

      Sadly, as reported on the BBC article Do apostrophes still matter?, The Apostrophe Production Society is no more. HERE IS A LINK to that article.
