There really is no excuse. I've been thinking of one, but nothing convincing comes to mind. Sure, one can always argue one way or the other, but then every story can have two faces.
Like a city under a flood, we all seem to be inundated these days. Like toddlers, we are distracted by the latest thing to catch our eye. Sometimes, even that is not enough. I guess I'm just old fashioned in that when I ask a question, I'd like to hear an answer, even if its not immediately.
True, in today's world, we're inundated with inputs from all avenues of our life. Email, Twitter, Facebook, text messaging are some of the ways the world floods our senses. We've gotten so used to the distractions, ADD is almost part and parcel of who we all are now. If its not in grabbing our attention, its out of our mind. And with all that rushes in, its hard for anything to grab our attention.
I guess that's why to some, email is dead, to others so are texts. The new wave? Face-to-face-attention-grabbing-conversation?
