This is true.
This is why I like the phone as well.
The tone of someone's voice tells so much. You can tell if someone is:
lying
angry
happy
sad
tired
anxious to buy/sell
exasperated
stupid
Those are all things that take longer to discern via text and are near impossible via email.
Knowing any of the above makes it easier to deal with the other person.
