Tom Wolfe, while he was in Baltimore recently, was quoted as saying (from Tulips and Bears):
"One reason that Jefferson, or for that matter Zola or Balzac or any of these great figures of the 18th and 19th centuries got so much done, so much more done than people today, is that they didn't have any time-saving or labor-saving devices...If Jefferson were alive today....he'd never finish answering the email."
