Since it appears that you're just being pissy, as usual, allow me to point out that Dale alleged that using "book's" could cause confusion because people might think it were a possessive. I see no reason to agree with that, just as i usually see n o reason to agree with you when you're pontificating.
it is obviously not a possessive in that sentence, and it is unreasonable to worry about people thinking so; however you were altogether wrong when you said that 'book' hardly ever requires a possessive, and when I corrected you you didn't like it, because you are full of ****. Go piss up a rope.
Selection bias . . . you're the one who comes around looking for the arguments, not me. Personally, i don't care if you live or die. I do enjoy, though, your puerile, playground insults. It puts your intellect into sharp focus.
