Books, Novels, etc have been using the written word to get accross 
emotions and such long before we ever had email, or TV or Radio. The
written word can be used effectively in the hands of a good writer. Long
before there was ever a telephone much less a computer, people communicated
by letters. Email is not some johnny-come-lately that will destroy us
emotionally and make us 'robots'. Rather, think of it as going back to the
good ol' days.

(personally I get a lot more out of reading a novel than seeing a movie)
