    <summary type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I read this comment on a story a few days ago and was appalled.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>i am a 15 year old australian i think i am what americans would call a
jok id prifer to run laps around a football or soccer field then reed
eny thing i havent read eny thing in years but i started reeding this
story at 11 at night and finished at 7in the morning i reeded 233
pages (i red some the night bifor) with out stoping and i reely
injoyed it i reely want to know how it ends</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I’m not sure which is worse, the abysmal spelling and grammar, or the
idea that the writer hadn’t “read eny thing in years.” If I hadn’t
encountered students with such poor literacy before, I’d think that it
was a joke.</p>]]></summary>
