I'm trying to figure out the difference between posting and commenting.

Anyway I agree with Barb. Sometimes I just want some quiet time. I have the Cox bundle and now when I'm watching TV and the phone rings a caller ID box pops up on the TV. So I can become the ultimate couch potato. If I don't want to answer the phone I don't have to move to know who is calling. The technology is awesome, but it makes me very lazy. I still prefer face to face conversations, but I have to admit that I've neve really been a phone person so if I have a quick comment or question I find texting, e-mailing or IM'ing quick and easy. There are certain people that I just don't call anymore because I know that I'll be on the phone for at least an hour. I still communicate with them, but not on the phone. Maybe when I finish with this degree program I'll go back to talking on the phone when I have an hour to spare.
