  1. Re:It's "its." on Interview: Steve Wozniak Unbound · · Score: 1

    except for one word: "it"

    ok...
    he is != hes
    she is != shes
    it is != its
    am I missing something?

    Everyone is allowed a mistake here or there... The blind argument which is made all to often here, that there are too many rules in the English language to know them all, is completely bogus. It's a small step from that point of view to anarchy, which would roughly translate to unintelligible bable.

    The rules are there so that the language makes sense -- the fact that the rules don't always make sense is just tough. Learn them anyway!
