Someone needs to tell the writer of the article that an apostrophe is not needed to pluralize a word.

Lot's of people use plural's with apostrophe's, and we get so used to it that it's a harmles's error. Everyone understand's what you mean even with the extra punctuation mark's. I'll bet the author has no regret's.

I have a regret. My regret is that our nation does not recognize that use of apostrophes is a privilege, not a right. Improper use should result in writers losing their apostrophe privilege.

Please, America : use apostrophes properly. The life you save may be mine.
