Mom owns an antique store: i work in tech. When i was growing up i made fun of my mom's business voicemail, which repeated her open hours twice and specified what goes in a message. These days i put deadlines in the subject of an email, then in the email twice — once in the overview, again in the action item. I also tell recipients exactly what i want to know in their subject and body of reply. Mama i get it now

@msafaksari @freemo Separate from what Dr. Freemo said, my impression is that they want to be a pretty insular group who are not interested in having public conversations. It's sad that "scholars" would take that position.
