Apostrophes in Names Stir Lot O' Trouble
Niall O\'Dowd poses for a photo in his office at the Irish Voice newspaper Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2008 in New York. When O'Dowd tried to book a flight to Atlanta earlier this year, he was hit by problem familiar to O'Dowds, O'Connors, D'Angelos and D'Agostinos across America -- the computer system refused to recognize his name. The Irish Voice editor could book the flight only by giving up his national identity. (AP Photo/Tina Fineberg)
