"TweetNot"

Listener Stella Shaffer of Salem, Oregon wrote an email she calls, "Tweeting Scott Simon -- TweetNot."

"I will not tweet you, Scott You Are.
I will not text you from the car.

I do not care for every thought,
So save them up you really ought

To organize your thoughts and call
When you can tell me of them all.

Or better yet, withhold such crumbs,
This constant contact yearning's dumb!

Talk radio just makes me groan
The programming is some guy's phone.

I want informing radio.
Not us all chatting with you, no.

Besides, like Facebook, there's a curve
We take it up, we post, we swerve

Straight into boredom and ennui
And after weeks we vanish, see?

I cannot wait until you quit.
See, tweeting makes you just - a twit. "
