Email is just a tool - like a hammer and a screwdriver...

However, you can't blame it for the decline of society or can we? I 
suggest that it provides an interesting non-violent balance to a 
globalised world run by a few.

The best story I heard was of a school where the students were all given 
email facilities so, they promptly all emailed the headmaster! Who of 
course complained of being Spammed!
