Hey, you want illiteracy...check out the comments at CNN.com on any article. It'll freeze the blood in your veins.

Yahoo.com news is just as bad. Then there are the two F-150 truck forums I visit from time to time. Talk about a bunch of illiterate rednecks with a handful of pseudoliterates tossed in pontificating pure B.S. Yeesh!

You probably remember all the wild claims for inventions magazines like Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, Science and Mechanics, and Mechanics Illustrated used to make. Pretty much none of them ever materialized. They were fun reads.

Does being a flatuent geriatric count for having a jet pack?
