    "Thanks for waking me up"? Who are these people that wake up because an email arrived?

    What you don't have a smartphone? What is wrong with you?

    I do have a smart phone. I'm also intelligent enough to use Tasker, which I configured to silence alerts overnight. Keep trying to be clever, though.

    I'll end all probable debate on this thread now. Snark and I agree, and hence, it is law.... or at least policy, or perhaps a slight mandate, anyway you look at it.

    I too fail to understand the outrage. I woke up to hundreds of emails. I searched for chrome-notebook-pilot, selected all, marked as read and got on with my breakfast.

    5 seconds of confusion followed by 30 seconds of work. Thanks for the notebook, Google!

    I believe this will cause consequences to never be the same.

    We had this same issue at my work three days after! In our case someone sent an email to the driver self certification distribution list, thinking it was a mail box. This then went to every employee in the company who is registered as driving at work including staff in Bangalore, Irelad and the Middle East as well as the CEO, and as you say it is perpetuated by morons using the reply to all button.

    I was quite amusing though!
