People might SAY "73s" on a voice mode, and they might WRITE "73s" on a QSL card, but has anyone ever, EVER, heard it sent that way on CW? 

Of course not, on CW it's always 73 ...

Have you ever heard a ham use an apostrophe on CW?

Of course 88s was also used at times ;D

The LIDs were out in full force last night on 40 meters. ( full moon approaching?)
Lots of bad fists and stepping on each other's transmissions, etc.
The 73 vs 73s issue pales in comparison!
Fix the other stuff and I can live with someone sending 73s.

It keeps getting worse.  I reached my limit about 10 months ago and quit CW.  (...after being about 99% CW for about 45 years.)
