I agree-anyone who has read a letter written 100 years ago can't help but be impressed at the average writing ability from back then compared to the lazy gibberish of today. I wonder what they'll think of our writings 100 years from now.
I don't get the texting thing-I would rather call.
I've also noticed that texting drivers are becoming a major problem. A friend of mine rear ended another car because he was trying to text and drive. The funny part is he is a cop and he was working at the time. Luckily no one was hurt and damage was minimal to both vehicles.
