and I agonized over that, too!

I hear ya. English is a tough language with a lot of arcane rules. Fortunately, I went to Army schools as a kid, and they didn't play with the basics. We learned 'em, or just about died.

A Helpful Rule: don't use an apostrophe to make a word plural.

Good rule.

Occasionally I make an error which drives me crazy. It’s a good thing to have a rule to fall back on:)
