Boy, am i glad i'm not a writer for Science News magazine. They
apparently have a rule against ending sentences with prepositions. Here
is a sentence from the 4 Feb, 1984 issue (page 72):
Flatulence. It's something with which bean lovers have had to
learn to live.
Yeeech!! I know it's really the fault of the ignoramous who makes
the rules, but can someone help the poor writer out, and make the sentence
more readable while still obeying the "rule".
P.S. If it's better to give than to receive, than it must be better to
give a shit than to take one.
