Default St Johns Wood or St John's Wood?

DERWENT St Johns Wood or St John's Wood?

James Farrar ) gurgled happily, sounding much like
they were saying :

Describing a length as "zero centimetres" is redundant, incidentally;
if the length is zero it's zero whatever the unit and thus is probably
best phrased as "zero length", depending on context.


I think it's fairly safe to say that "zero miles" may very well cover a
wider range of zero than "zero microns".


:-)

In the abscence of any indication of precision I'm inclined to agree
with you.
