I’m surprised you haven’t sprouted a robust beard by merely being in his presence.
Incorrect. MLA formatting demands “Myers’s”, as the single apostrophe is only for use in plural words. Whereas PZ Myers is one person, “Myers’s” is the correct format.Some archaic forms of this exist, such as, interestingly enough, “Jesus'”. By MLA standards, this is incorrect, but it is often accepted as an anachronism.PZ Myers, however, isn’t in the Bible.For more information:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A…
All the jokes I wanted to make have been done. Sigh.

It depends on the style guide used. The Canadian Style states that plurals ending in a sibilant take only the apostrophe. You point to one style guide, I point to another – it hardly makes me incorrect.
I don’t care for the Canadian Style guide at all. It’s a grammardisagreement, though, you are correct.Indeed, let’s both be correct and get a beer. Well, I’ll use it as an excuseto drink a beer. Mmm. Beer.
Epinephrinesays
Sorry, cut and pasted the wrong bit – that was on plurals; the Canadian Style also addresses the singular – “A word which does not end in a sibilant (s or z sound) forms the possessive by the addition of ’s” and “Regarding the appropriate form for singular words that end in a sibilant, pronunciation is again the determining factor. If it would be natural to pronounce an extra s, add ’s; if an additional s would be difficult to pronounce, add only an apostrophe”Myers’s (Myerses?) sounds much more awkward than Myers’, at least to these ears.

Sounds good! I’ll make sure to pour one for you, too. I might help you finish it, though ;)
I don’t understand! He reads a book that is different than the one you read. You should be plotting to kill him, yet you instead you offer to drink with him! “O you who believe! do not take the followers of Canadian Literary Style for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them!”
