| Not to be confused with the tactile data one gleans by touching something, nor the olfactory, visual, auditory, and flavorous data gleaned through meeting someone or experiencing something.
IMHO, this iteration of contact information is much more important to humanity's survival as a sane species than the other. In fact, a case could be made for the occlusion of the former for this, the latter, in the interest of fostering an increase in live, real-world, person-to-person contact. Merely swapping pager numbers on ICQ and calling it a "relationship" creates a social norm we must beat down or risk personal disenfranchisement on a global scale.
That being said, I will offer that I possess no less than fifteen individual means of contact, most of which are listed at the bottom of every email I send.
