"We are aware of the way the English language is evolving during use, and do not intend any direct criticism of those who have made the mistakes above. We are just reminding all writers of English text, whether on notices or in documents of any type, of the correct usage of the apostrophe should you wish to put right mistakes you may have inadvertently made." Hardly qualifies them as Nazis. :) We do not intend any direct criticism of those who are mistakenly not of the Party. We are just reminding all citizens of the Fatherland of the correct usage of their life, should they wish to put right mistakes they may have inadvertently made.
