On this topic though, I still can't decide how to properly handle
things like "He got straight A's" or similar. Gut says apostrophe for
pluralization is *always* wrong, but "He got straight As" just doesn't
work either. Best avoided as much as possible.


Apostrophe is wrong. The second choice may look wrong but it's right.


Yeah, it's wrong but


No, it's not wrong. The apostrophe is fine in examples like Sylvan's
