Yes, we ARE a city of addicts.

Email addicts, that is.

Yep, AOL has declared Orlando to be the 7th most email-addicted city in the nation.

Here's the full list, in case ye socks are that interested:

1. New York City (go figure)
2. Houston
3. Chicago
4. Detroit
5. San Francisco
6. Sacramento
7. ORLANDO
8. Minneapolis
9. Denver
10. Phoenix

What was more intriguing about this report were the drill-down results that were Orlando-specific:

* 62% of us have checked our email in the bathroom. (Evidently, not using a PC!?!)
* 60% of us have checked our email in bed. (Guilty)
* 32% of us who have hand-held crackberry-like devices leave them on our nightstands.
* 32% of us have checked our email while on a date.
* 31% of us have declared "email bankruptcy," which involves deleting everything in your inbox and starting over with a fresh slate.
* 16% of us have checked our email during a religious service.
* 7% of us have broken-up with someone via email. (I would recommend slydial.com as an alternative . . . see yesterday's post for details on that.)
