E-mail Responses: Rational or Random?
I chanced upon this news report in Northwestern University that reports on some research that a faculty member in chemical and biological engineering had done on whether (timely?) responses to e-mail are rational or random by studying 3000 e-mail accounts. I couldn't find the actual paper, but if someone did, please leave a comment.
