Apostrophe campaign ends due to 'ignorance and laziness'
Quote:

A retired journalist who founded a campaign to preserve the correct use of the apostrophe is bowing out because "ignorance has won". The Apostrophe Protection Society was started by John Richards in 2001 to tackle misuse of the punctuation mark. His work involved advising people on proper use and writing to organisations to highlight their apostrophe abuse. The 96-year-old said: "We have done our best but the ignorance and laziness present in modern times have won." |
