I urge you to assign someone as copy editor for your articles. In the article on the skateboard park lighting in the Nov 6 issue, there were two instances of “it’s” used where “its” is correct (both on page 20). C’mon folks, you learned in 3rd grade the difference between its and it’s, and it’s been reviewed in every English class you’ve taken since then. “It’s” with an apostrophe is not, not, not a possessive (whoever made this rule probably had no idea how much trouble it would cause, but there it is).
