Eagle Master convinced me that the apostrophe is there for a reason (specificially, he said it could be the symbol representing prime).
Prime has yet another meaning. In the game of backgammon:
Quote:
What is a "prime"?

A prime is a sequence of six consecutive blocks. When a prime is in place, none of the opponent's checkers can move past as long as the prime remains intact. That's because a checker can't touch down on a blocked point and never moves more than six points in a single hop.
