The apostrophe is an aberration in the English language, "up with

liberty of a misquote]. We use it for so many different things and
meanings that it gets misused often ... or usually. If it can't be
said with 26 letters and 10 digits, maybe it doesnt need to be said
that way, or maybe we need a new word.

Perhaps it's a good thing that use can be made of Upper and Lower case
letters to change the meaning of a word if that's the objective, for
example a 'bird' is a feathered beastie while a 'Bird' is quite a
different entity - but I'll refrain from further comment. Please don't
quote me to my English cousins but it's been claimed by English
academics that the best English is or was spoken in Scotland, in the
region of the Black Isle so named because of the large number of
witches who lived there. Their written spells made full use of the
apostrophe, so be warned if it's to be thought of as an aberration!
