A nitpick, in your FAQ's it should be "in the 1960's" not "the 1960th" if I'm reading the year correctly.

- alttag 7y agoA nitpick: don't use the apostrophe in the phrase "in the 1960s". It's not a possessive in that sentence. See, e.g., https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/apostrophe.html https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/apostrophe.html
- seawlf 7y agoThis is not a hard-and-fast rule. There's hardly agreement in style guides on this note. Don't be a jerk and nitpick style on the internet; it does not add to the conversation. https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/13631/is-an-apostrophe-with-a-decade-e-g-1920-s-generally-considered-incorrect https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/13631/is-an-apos...
- slips 7y agoThis is largely to taste. An apostrophe doesn't always mean it's possessive, as just demonstrated, but it is also used for plural abbreviations or for numbers (like 1960's). Casual English is fairly fluid. People rarely talk exactly according to the rules of English class.
- dragonwriter 7y agoA nitpick, in your comment, it should be “FAQs” not “FAQ’s”.
- Zecc 7y agoThat's peanuts compared to the typos in "tommorow", also in the FAQ.
