Skills such as reading comprehension in schools anymore?

Just wondering because sometimes it seems that people just don't have basic skills such as reading comprehension, and basic deduction as part of their knowledge base.

It's not fully about your post or I would have said so.

but your post did raise the question in my head because I see the same thing in many posts when a simple read answers what seems an already explained idea.

You asked if they were still making snow right after he had stated that the storms dumped about a foot of fresh on top of the base snow. That was my deduced conclusion from reading and comprehending the original post.

I'm not trying to point you out even though your comment did inspire the question so don't take it personal, I just want to understand the reason people on a regular basis don't seem to have any comprehension skills.

Well the deduction from that is knowing that snow on the east coast is almost always man made and the machines run pretty close to the end of season. You live out there and should know that much

Like I said it wasn't solely your post that raised the qestion so don't take it as a personal shot.

Mycarisfast: Your post above lacked a little grammar as well.
