Horseshit. They have nothing to do, They just want to get back to their phone and their social networks.
I would love to discuss this in more detail sometime but I try to keep my posts brief.
I have written a number of times and never received a reply. Some of it rather personal which has just become alarming. Is email from dmurray110@cox.net in your spam/junk folder?

I've posted that link on dozens of Medium articles about restoring the interruption-free workplace I knew at Microsoft in 1990-1.
That wisdom has been completely lost.

Nothing, but did you just receive my email?
Very strange that I got nothing.
This is where I got the name from. One of my favorite pieces of music of all time.

I received it. I just replied from my most used cox.net account and my little used Gmail account.
