One of our original Lojban students liked to tease everyone by using unvoiced "th" as his realization of all apostrophes. It sounded funny and probably caused everyone else to try harder to use 'h'.

I'm fairly certain I remember reading the bit about " ' " as well. IIRC, it was either in the bit about "strange" pronunciations (c ,j ,x, etc.), or the bit about being allowed to for example pronounce {mlatu} as "milatu" using the "I" in "fit".
