 Replying to [comment:1 miqrogroove]:
 > Excuse my disagreement, but formal grammar in English requires a
 possessive proper noun to be followed by the letter "s", as in, "Let's
 meet at Chris's place."

 (It doesn't affect the ticket, but just want to clarify here: both are
 acceptable, and it depends on the writing style. Some styles have complex
 rules around this, but there's no singular rule for English.)
