It’s a real shame when people who claim to be communication professionals can’t get it right.
(Thanks, Susan Riegel!)

It’s only half-fixed. What about the unneeded apostrophe in the name? It ought to be RC’s PCs, not RC’s PC’s.

Hi Grace,
That is the way it is written on my Incorporation papers. And it has been spelled that way since I was in 7th grade about 6 years ago.

The grammar in the body copy is appalling! ‘…recommended to those that are in a over populated business…’ ? ..an over-populated business…’ would be an improvement. And why do some services get an apostrophe, and not others?

I know this young man and just to let you know he is 16 and runs his own business. Yes he made a few mistakes on his site but corrected them as soon as he was aware. Grace the RCPCS is a trademarked name and is done that way on purpose. I recommend Richard get a life. If he had half the drive of this young man he would be busy doing something productive.

@ #6 – Anonymous: “Hey, cut the kid some slack… he’s what… in high school?” … This is how English is taught in high schools these days. Sad indictment on the education system.
