Killed to death? You are exceptionally stupid are'nt you?

Never heard of anybody ever killed to less than death, I need to get

"Almost Killed To Death"? Typical of the poor writing in this rag. Why

elementary school?

Almost killed to death?

I couldn't bring myself to read your article but I certainly had to
comment on your writing skills. Not good.
