This “doctor” spent 80,000 words to tell the world that “the average text contains 17.5 words”. Are you kidding me? This is what academia has devolved into?

I can think of several legitimate and potentially revealing issues to study about wireless, social media, and online communications, but private texting is not one of them.

Nice to hear from you again, Dr. Joe. Just be glad that in this case these are England’s taxpayers, not Australian (or Canadian!)

Clearly people have too much time on their hands. And the question arises – who pays for this? Oh that’s right, the taxpayer.
