Texting and social sites are destroying content. No contemplation, no
review before send, nothing much important but just a bunch of short
inane scribbles, and the Pavlov response of having to immediately reply.
Ooh, got a text, have to reply now while ignoring everyone around them
with whom they're supposed to be socializing.  They're becoming isolated
anti-socials despite the pretense that they're communicationg with
someone.  They won't call the other party and actually talk with them
because their speech and cognitive abilities are horrible.
