I would second that.
An apostrophe is NEVER used to indicate a plural in English, and to use it for such a purpose in programming is more than confusing - it seems like somebody who didn't know what an apostrophe is actually for misunderstood it and applied it wrongly. What's wrong with an 's' to indicate a plural? If it's not sufficiently clear, perhaps a better var name should be chosen.
Grocers (or should that be Grocer's?) are the only profession allowed to use an apostrophe to indicate that there's an 's' about to come up at the end of the word. The rest of us should know better! ;)
