[quote=Anonymous]When I was 24 my mom contacted my advisor, who then emailed me. It was 1990, and I was out of the country doing research. I had email access, but did not have a phone. I was in a Asia 12 hours out of sync with home timezone. Calling home was not trivial: I had to go to the post office, and wait for a phone. My thinking was to delay the call from Sunday to Tuesday because Tuesday was my Parents 30th anniversary. Only, I had no way to communicate that to my parents. So, when I did not call on SUN, they panicked. On Mon, they called my advisor, who emailed me. I called them as soon as I could; woke them up.[/quote]
