Well before you go to bed about 2 hours should be alright, but this and that and this and more of that. No excuse people, got that!

It's not just sleep deprivation - the art of conversation is dying out.

What's the point in texting someone in the next room? Get off your backside and TALK to them!

I see it at work all the time - head down looking at their phone, on Facebook "talking" to faaaasends of "friends" they've never actually met!

Yet when you actually try talking to them they can't keep a conversation going!!

Bleh!
