I read somewhere an article about using the internet. One thing I
recall from that article was the idea of waiting a day before
responding to an e-mail that upsets you. This way, when you're
writing, you are (hopefully!) in a calmer state of mind, and less
likely to say stuff you'll regret.
The 24 hour buffer also give the original sender a chance to rethink
his/her comments, and you may get an apology before you have a chance
to send your response.
Sorry I don't recall where I read this ... Kawasaki's "The Computer
Curmudgeon," maybe? (tryptophan ... in turkey ... making me ...
drowsy! must ... get ... to .... Starbucks ...for a .... chocolate ...
brownie ... frappacino .... before I ... fall ... aslee -- zzzzz .....)
