Your vs. You\'re [MERGED]

Most Breakfast fans either do not know the distinct usages of the two or simply do not care to use the appropriate term when necessary.  Also problematic is their vs. there vs. they\'re.  

I\'m just not sure why so many people fail to use these basic words correctly.

You\'re point is taken Al.  Their is a huge problem with grammatical error on this site.  Maybe we can add a grammer checker on here.
