One third of the e-mails you are likely to receive in your lifetime will be the bumbling, incoherent efforts of your friends, relatives and colleagues. Our class in Little Falls, Wisconsin is doing a project for tomorrow on Africa. Please send all the info. Dear Wise Investor.

Many people feel they have to sit at their desks to sort it all out.
They have lunch at their terminals. They stop going out so much, and when they do they find they are being harassed by their pagers and mobile phones. They no longer meet people and make contacts because they feel they can't afford the time. They become more and more aggressive towards, and intolerant of, intrusions. Stress builds up, they smoke and drink more and they suffer immune problems, such as colds, headaches and aches and pains.
