    Only an idiot would use space heaters to heat a house. The former owners story is much more plausible. I can’t believe the audacity of the plaintiff to try and shift blame because of his own ignorance, negligence, and stupidity.

    This article is grammatically wrong. It reads as if the father died in the fire. The subject “Father” matches the verb “Died” Guess IJ is hiring idiots right out college. Well, cheaper for them, they have no bills since they live at hom, no character either

    Reagan: Actually, you’re wrong. The noun “father” refers grammatically to the verb “claims.” The verb “died” is part of the relative clause “three children who died in a southwestern Pennsylvania house fire that also killed four other people.” Now is it a great sentence? Maybe not, but it is correct.

    After re-reading it, you are right, Grammerian. But, onemust really read it slow to get that. It is a horrible sentence
