I am reading SAPIENS by Yuval Noah
Harari. He says: Even today the majority of human communication (Facebook,
email, twitter and mostly quick, grammatically incorrect short messages- Dr.

copies.

of cell phones (how wonderful it is in case of a medical emergency!) or social

immense help in enhancing Relationships.
