The Question: E-mail: Blessing or Curse?
Anything that saves time and postage, which is going up again, is a blessing. The curse, of course, is that you are never out of touch.

Cal, you bring to mind that rally bad movie where the computer took over the dooms day train or something like that. When the general said, "unplug the #%$#@$# thing" he was told it couldn't be unplugged.
Now that's what we need to worry about. Of course, eventually computers will learn to reproduce themselves, as if things weren't bad enough as is.
Here's a line fer ya, "Sorry, my computer has a bad virus and I can't read or answer my mail until it gets over it." That way "selected" people won't know you're ignoring them even though you're not.

But, Cal...
One of the reasons for the postage hike is increasing reliance on email.
This is timely - the mail carrier just dropped of my incoming mail. He asked if I had anything to go out, and after I replied "No," he said "Shame on you."

The problem isn't e-mail. It is people. The same goes for the blessing.
