: : : One of the things that I think that technology has done that is not good is the ability to remove some of that human touch. Example is voice mail? I wonder how many of us have voice mail and how many of us encounter voice mail every day at work. Usually, I have will receive voice mail and respond to voice mail but never actually talk to the person.
: : I agree with u some people do take advantage of that.
: Well, I think I can understand the need to take advantage of this. I certainly don't want to miss anyone's phone call. Still, I think it removes the human touch. That's what I don't like about it.
: Most of us have come to rely on computers, e-mail, the internet to communicate with others. We have to get back to using the telephone and talk to each other and in person.
