Mark,

I came across your post again today as I was replying to a thread in “Getting Things Done” GTD Connect forum. This is such a perfect summary, thanks again.

I wrote up a related post about using the right system for the job. Don’t be a jerk and send someone a massive email full of work, be considerate and use the proper mechanism for the work.

wish they did have good grammar checkers…i’m a stickler for grammar and spelling..and when i goof cuz in a hurry, i hate to go back and see what i wrote…

i love this..email and texting, etc., can really cause trouble..you dont get to see expressions and hear the tones of the voice..body english too…ive seen 1000′s of emails get misconstrued and cause trouble..problem is though, it takes both sides. not just one.
