i would not join the apostrophe proctection thingy. I do have a pet peev about the things tho.
would rather people didnt use them at all rather than used them for every word ending in the letter 's'

Oh dear, am I very sad? Read a review for Eats, Shoots & Leaves on Saturday, and immediately put it on my Christmas wishlist

I'm not a member of the apostrophe protection society though and I don't correct other people; but bad punctuation does distract me from the content.

i have got my class (year 6) on a mission to track down wrongly used apostrophes (yes i am that sad)
one boy got his step father to change all his business letterheads etc to correct this!!!

ks - AQI - Australian Questioning Intonation - that's the technical term (had to look it up but knew it had a name). Definitely dying out though.

Oh, looky here !!!

"Between You and I: a little book of bad English" by John Humphreys (and another bloke)!

Probably best used for hitting people over the head when they speak sloppily. I shall get one for my family right away.
