Please take note of the difference between "its" and "it's". The first one is the possessive, as in "its ears are soaked". The second is a contraction of "it is", such as "it's raining". --TTEchidna 09:38, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

"You"

Well, since we're an encyclopedia, we try not to use "you" in there, since we don't want to talk to the reader. TTEchidna 23:10, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
