Just registering a grammatical Ouch! for the mispleaced apostrophe in "it's"

That is all :-)

It's an easy typo mistake to make. Brain farts, and we don't catch it in the edit. In the morning when only semi-vertical, I don't even notice. I only cringe when fully awake.

"Mispleaced" Typos happen.

*grin* Yes, they do. Thanks for pointing it out.

I was more complaining about a pervasive error of comprehension, though; I've seen at least one study which demonstrates that misuse of "it's" is the most frequent error in English. And I suppose I feel that large, slick, professionally written and edited sites (including both abcnews.com and cbsnews.com) ought to have gotten past this one by now.
