MEthematics ... A Sic Solution To A Serious Problem

________________________________________________________________________________________________

On track 17,
a train is carrying
39 passengers.

On track 39,
a train is carrying
17 passengers.

Both conductors
are stoned on meth.

If both trains
are traveling in
opposite directions,
then I am 
the most beautiful person 
in the world.

To solve the problem
of American students
having difficulty
with Mathematics,
all we have to do
is change the spelling
of the word.
