E-mail is a fast wonderful inexpensive leisurely form on instant communication....but it has very very serious draw-backs....it's a poor form of one-on-one true communication! Much of one on one human communication is non-verbal...e-mail leaves out facial expressions, body movements, hand gestures, voice tone, voice volume etc etc....Many times I can quiet my 31 fourth graders without saying a word, a mad -dog stare! does the trick...( not that kind of trick...sorry Governor)....I got a post about one of my posts to the list and I took it the wrong way and I got angry...so I got a taste of my own medicine...this was all in private so the names involved will remain so, but since I voiced my anger publicly I need to voice my apology publicly....I have spoken to all parties involved and we remain friends...it's like the time I posted to the list that everyone who feeds RAW is out of their minds...lol...Rebecca Little went ballistic...not knowing of course this is how I feed my dogs...perhaps we all need to clarify before we respond harshly, unless ofcouse we are talking about Evan...he's Jewish and does not deserve any respect.....there I go again..Edwin Bernard Hill, wiping egg off my face..it aint the first time, wont be the last ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
