Keep up the good work, Mehrdad. It's got to be hard "holding your tongue" when you are mostly dealing with arrogant twits on this board.

it's vs its vs its'

Never expect this board to turn into one on the English language and how it hs deteriorated (or evolved, as some may say). I wince every time I see "it's" being used of its, and "there" instead of "their". However, "its'" is certainly a new one! Mehrdad, just for the record, your use of the English language is enjoyable and refreshing!

PS. Do you know that all overseas students (including those from the UK and Australia) coming to study in the US have to take a TOEFL test? TOEFL stands for "Test of English as a Foreign Language". LOL.
