and it's people of all ages who prefer texting. I find texts overwhelming when there are so many of them, between individuals and sometimes between groups, and when I try to find info that was previously sent it is a real pain. I don't understand why others prefer it. Oh well. It could be that I'm simply more attuned to email because I'm sitting at my desktop working seemingly nonstop. lol
