Just to stay off topic, texting has its place. If you take public transit and have listened to a teenager angrily break up with her boyfriend via cel phone on the seat next to you, you'll be a fan of text messaging.

Personally though, I'm not important enough to need to talk to anyone who can't wait until I get to work and log onto my backpacking forums <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
