They say that there are three fastest methods of communication. On a personal level, many of us communicate by telephone or cell phones via text. Text messages are cheap and written so the transmitter can always check to make sure the message is correct before it is sent. And the receiver, can always re-read the message to make sure it is understood the way the transmitter had intended. The danger is sending the message to the wrong person. This can happen when the transmitter misdial the number. I have had occasions where people called my number and tried to convince me that I was somebody else, other than myself. I remember one woman who called my phone and asked to talk to my husband. I responded with, “I am sorry, but you have the wrong number.” She was sure I was lying and turned to her husband and told him what I said to which the husband got the phone and insisted that I put my husband on the line. Since it was a cell phone, I decided to save air time and hang up the phone. Consequent calls by the same couple came via different phone numbers continued for a couple of days until they were convinced that they had the wrong number.
