"your comments certainly infer [sic] I would be comfortable with the plight of our more mobile brethren."

The word you want there is imply. Infer and imply are not interchangeable. FYI.


"INFER vs. IMPLY

The best way to remember the difference between these two words is to think in terms of the model used by communications theorists. Communication consists of a message, a sender, and a receiver. The sender can imply, but the receiver can only infer. The error that usually occurs is that the word infer is mistakenly used for imply."
