I thought that it was tough listening to " The Little Professor " lecture us constantly for the past 7 1/2 years .

Now it appears that we must hear " Grumpy Granny " and her shrill screeching for the next 8 .

Her voice , her volume , her words , her dress --- having to live with it should be considered " cruel and unusual punishment ".

How anyone can say that they find her style attractive and motivating in any way is beyond comprehension .
