Hi Bill,

Different stokes for different folks.

My time is far too valuable to me, to spend it chatting with other 
acquaintances who have nothing better to do than talk to their friends 
in real time, alal day long!
For me, it's an interruption I'd rather not have.
My workday is mostly intense and directed at the task at hand.
To have the CPU dinging all the time because someone wants to "chat" is 
a disruption, and eventually nothing but an annoyance...

During the very early mornings or the evenings, I answer emails in real 
time. During the day, I save them.
I prefer it that way.
I know others would just LOVE to have their boring days interrupted. I 
don't have boring days...

And so it goes! Thankfully, we all have a choice! Great, isn't it?
