KE, do you really think you will be able to convince the "Illuminati" who are present here that the phone system is still the best way to go? Might as well try to get a sack of hammers to float .

I like Hosses' explanation for how and why email became a requirement, it sounds par for the course.

I'll bet at least 1/2 the guys who think that having email is necessary for a SO also think that it is necessary to dress their Little Leaguers up like hockey goalies before they go up to home plate.
It's that same kind of mentality.
