A grammar quibble
Once and for all!!  Please listen gang...

	"Its" is the posessive form.  It is used for such constructions as
		"..its processor is wedged.."

	"It's" is a contraction of "It is".  It cannot be used as a
		synonym for "its".  It's (sic) bad grammar not to use
		each word in its (sic) proper place.

Of course there are those who feel that grammar and spelling are irrelevant,
oppressive tools of the egghead academicians, and they aren't listening to
me anyway.  *sigh*.
