I ran across an excerpt which piqued my interest in modern #communications. I wonder how much #NonverbalCommunication we lose nowadays because of #SocialMedia, #Texting, etc? How many more conversations nowadays are misinterpreted because of the missing factor of non-verbal communication? #Miscommunication #ModernCommunication

Today, an Ash tree that grew for 160 years with hundreds of gravestones around its rootstock, fell!
The tree, located in St Pancras Gardens (London, UK), has a history that involves authors Thomas Hardy and Charles Dickens.
