    Ooo. Low blow.

    Anyway, our dear webmasters only speak about 6 words a day.

    "Mom, did you buy the HotPockets?"

    I second that, or the least dwell on more irrelevant topics like nail painting and bleah.

    Do forum posts count as chatting these days...?

    I think the guys here post 20-30 times more than the women. :p

    The college years are a unique time. A good portion of the time is spent in class (you mostly listen), time is spent studying (little talk), time is spent in group work where all talk in somewhat equal amounts, and then there is free time. So college time has a number of factors that equalize the amount of talk that is done. This study does a good job creating a need for more studies and little more. :D
