A call to the knowledgeable people of my flist!

Which sentence is correct, apostrophe-wise:

"Written in the 1960's, this book..."

"Written in the 1960s, this book..."

Plurals have no apostrophes. eg car - cars.
Except for hers and yours and its.

Possessives and contractions do.
eg Maharetr's query
It is - it's

ah. early. no coffee yet.

hers, yours and its are clearly possessives, not plurals, and the exceptions to possessives having apostrophes.
