[Grammar/poll] Quick check ...

Should the plural of an acronym have an apostrophe?

[Poll #1217630]

I know what the Times and Oxford style guides say, but I was wondering about the opinions of my readership on the wonderful wibbly wobbly world wide web.

I'd only use an apostrophe for that if it's indicating possession. As in (hypothetically) - "the GCSE's invigilators". That's a bad eggsample (sorry, the ecks key is buggered on this keyboard; I'm working around it!) but you get the picture.

...that must make logging into things really annoying, given what your username is!

There was a whole episode with Notebook, some ctrl-x attempts, some swearing as I realised the futility of that move, some ctrl-c-ing, and finally success at logging in :-)

Then I moved to another terminal :-) (Airport PCs, bah!)
