A while ago there was a discussion about the usage of _its_ and _it's_ in
some source comments.  Today, fortune(6) gave me the following:


  It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, if you mean it
  is.  If you don't, it's its.  Then too, it's hers.  It isn't her's.  It
  isn't our's either.  It's ours, and likewise yours and theirs.
