I never put much stock in Mr. McCluhan's idea, "the meduim is the message."
This story, however does bear him out. Enjoy!

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each
other the silent treatment. The next week the man realized that he would
need his wife to wake him at 5:00 a.m. for an early morning business flight
to Chicago.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence he wrote on a piece of
paper, "Please wake me at 5:00 A.M." He placed the paper on her nightstand.

The next morning the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 A.M. and that
he had missed his flight. Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife
hadn't awakened him when he noticed a
piece of paper on his nightstand.

The paper said, "It is 5:00 A.M. Wake up."

Pray for Peace,
Yosef
