This kinda Grammar runs rampant amongst the west virginians.. i dunno what happend up there.. Im begining to speculate sompin like the salem wicth trials on english teachers. they rounded up all the english teachers in the area and said if you truly know your english you will be able to recite the rules of the english language in french with being held under water.. well turned out they all died cuz no one could understand them underwater.

Getting stendori back on track here...yes, I have heard of people putting the 27" on there and gaining better traction, but at the cost of a couple MPH.

Last time i checked, reading and writing do not require hearing? I would think without the ability of hearing ones ability to read and write would be enhanced.
