Fixed.  Now reads:

1. The first character of any name SHOULD have a Unicode property of 
ID_Start, or else be '_' #x5F.

2. Characters other than the first SHOULD have a Unicode property of 
ID_Continue, or be one of the characters listed in the table entitled 
"Characters for Natural Language Identifiers" in UAX #31, with the 
exception of "'" #x27 and "’" #x2019.
