Well said.  On the scale of things we waste our time and blood pressure when
we get all wound up about email.  It's to easy to say things in email that
you later regret.  Unfortunately  as emails are short and  black and white
we miss the greys and qualifications of normal conversation.  Most of all we
miss the subtle clues of voice and body language.  Lets be as tolerant as we
want to be tolerated.

p.s.  I wonder how many people this message irritates?
