“The highly visible blackout campaign organised by the Creative Freedom Foundation and its supporters has served to bring the issue into mainstream debates, and we applaud the efforts they have taken,” Davidson says.

    Certainly satisfying to see a response. Could see over the last few days smaller parties developing and interest and raising questions. I thought it was funny to see some of Labour asking questions about how the previous review of 92a was undone.

    Fingers crossed for some better decision making over the next month.

    Just came back to my laptop and decided to look up Apostrophe. This Wikipedia article (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Apostrophe&oldid=273182826) is what I ended up reading.

    I read various parts and then “Time, money, and similar”.* In reading that I thought, hey I might be right … but then I could also be wrong. I’m not really sure, I’ll read some more.

    So I ended up reading “Importance for disambiguation” below the time content, and I’ve now decided I know so very little about this subject I should have just kept to myself to begin with :)

    • I have my own questions about punctuation before and after an end quote mark. Usually I put a full stop inside the quotation, in this case a person could copy and paste the quote and not find what they’re after because a full stop is not part of it. Drama!
