ok, your links please? Every link I posted supports my hypothesis. "My English teacher confirmed it" isn't what I would call conclusive evidence.

Pevil:
"ARGH can we please quit this?! Most people in England get apostrophe's wrong all the time."

Funny you should say that, since you misused an apostrophe in "apostrophe's". lol. If you didn't do that on purpose, that's just too damn funny. :)

Basically we're very lazy in the UK. 8)

Links? I found hordes of them when searching in google for "apostrophe rules". If you're that desperate, I'll go and find them all again - (Beware - url spam ahead)

heh. Well, I did the google thing too, and posted up the first three that I found that came from relatively reliable sources. And they all agreed with me.

note...please don't post some kid's personal website, with scrolling marquees and blink tags. I do not consider that an authoritative source. :)

Satis the answer came to me in my English exam. I was browsing through Animal Farm and I came across this word "Jones's". This proves that Satis's should be spelt like so. :P Ends argument cos thats how George Orwell spelt it.
