Greetings, everyone:

"Subject: [Artemisia] just picking nits, ignore if you aren't picky"

Oh, but I am. Technical writer and all that. Then he makes a valid point
regarding "populous" vs. "populace,"

and goes on to say:
"Sorry, just the teacher in me rearing it's ugly head"

The technical writer in me wants to say that there's no apostrophe in
possessive "its." "It's" is the contraction for "it is."

Cheers
Caryn
who saw a bus stop sign today that said "Nurse's wanted" :-P
