This afternoon CNN is offering a piece titled “Twelve Steps to Curing E-Mail Addiction“about an executive coach in Pennsylvania whoclaims to help executives and others addicted to (over)using email. His 12-step program (steps listed here) claims to help those who just can’t quit checking, using and talking over e-mail.

Funny, I just don’t see the need for a 12-step program to solve this one.

In fact, I can cure that addiction in one step: Turn off the computer.

Unplug the plug.

Turn off the switch.

Go do something else. Like…blogging. (Heh.) Or talking on your cell phone.

On second thought, go back to e-mail. It’s less time consuming.
