Comment: David Crystal writes: "In the sixteenth century there was a great confusion among compositors over the use of the apostrophe." ((In the 21st Century there still is.)) "The biggest punctuation changes since the Renaissance are about to hit us, because of the Internet." Arghhh, Maybe those 15th century editors had the right idea.
