Can I comment on the dramatic overuse/misuse of apostrophes instead of a particular word or phrase? There's a carpet store not too far from my house and every time I drive by, they have an outdoor sign advertising "1000's of Carpets." And then there are the people who say that proper punctuation and spelling don't matter anymore or, at least, not to them. If proper punctuation and spelling don't matter, how will I know what you are really trying to say? EEEEK!
