This topic reminds me of the car salesman threads where everyone slags off the salesman's and they come on defending themselves and blame the customers.

This is a fallacy... most Russian's in eastern Ukraine want to retain good ties with Russia, however only a few want to leave Ukraine to join Russia itself.

Most insurgent's are not East Ukrainians, but "rent an army" types shipped in from Russia, whether the locals want them there or not.

I will try to dig up the results of a poll, but Russian Ukrainians were actually more in favor of independence than integration with Russia itself.

Gentlemen, I present to you "Roys Auto's" of Barnsley.

http://www.roysautos.co.uk

Please take the time to marvel over their photo gallery which features several of their vehicles also replete with apostrophe misuse.

Surely this company must win some sort of award for their determination to misuse apostrophes in the face of adversity? I refuse to believe that a multitude of website developers, sign writers and advertising copy writers haven't tried to persuade them of the errors before embarking upon their work.

Worse in what way?

I think a business with a name consisting of two words, both of which are grammatically incorrect, is good going. Add to that the fact that they have repeated the errors on many vehicles and signs, etc., and I'd say it's pretty bad.
