Yes - one gets so used to being able to reach people in the 
modern world, that a short period of disconnect leads to all 
kinds of concerns and doubts.  There is a fine balance to be 
struck between wanting to maintain an admirably high standard of 
professionalism and excellence, and being excessively harsh in 
enforcing such a standard - particularly in a public forum.  The 
problem is also the medium doesn't lend itself to nuance, and 
modern people don't tend to think that way either.
