I really don't know why people keep saying reading improves one's proficiency in the language. It never did for me. And i love reading. I've got like a whole shelf of 'em and more in two big cartons stacked away in our store 'cause there was no place to put 'em. And yet, my English sucks. It's pretty persistent about that too. =P But i stopped correcting people making that statement when i made the mistake of correcting my English teacher. Bad idea.
I'm amazed at how some people have never read a book without any compulsion. i mean, reading has become such a routine feature that it's just really hard to imagine someone who doesn't.
i feel pity for those poor souls. they have no idea what they're missing out on. Or maybe they do, but can't do anything about it for some reason or the other. You can't pass judgement based on your thoughts and beliefs. It's never wise. :)
