You don't need an advanced English degree to know what these are. I learned them in the second grade, back during the Sputnik era. You graduated from the second grade, didn't you? Of course you did! You should therefore be familiar with the use of these basic components of the English language.

It would bother me too if I let it. Each time it starts to get to me I read Baltazar Gracian's, "The Art of Worldly Wisdom". It's brilliant re how to deal with changing times and communication styles even though it was written centuries ago. I hope I used my apostrophes correctly in my post,
