I also ascribe to the "s-apostrophe" rather than the "s-apostrophe-s"
rule, which seems illogical, and is, because Americans at least will ad
an extra "s" as in Barkses stories when they pronounce the possessive of
Barks. Still, I have never liked the way it looks! And so, even though
the sound is there, I will not write an extra gentive "s" for a word
ending in -s.
Illogical, but that's English!
And anything that keeps Barks and Uncle Scrooge going is fine with me! I
just wish we had a series of the Don Rosa Library going right now in the
U.S.!
