LOL this is great

I want to join the TFS support group too!

What about Annemehr's example of:

"the students' bags where all in the hall way"

Or does (horror) the CMS call for:

"the students's bags where all in the hall way"

Which looks very clumsy IMO

by the way JKR uses "James's broomstick" which is a nasty, though correct. I
think it's a modern fashion and if we ignore it CMS and other style manuals
will quietly revert to the more attractive "James' broomstick"

storm, who doesn't have a copy of the Australian Style Manual but will
consult it at work at work today.
