I totally agree... affinity for IM, or lack thereof, is not a function of introversion/extraversion in my experience.
I'm a hardened introvert, and I *love* IM and text messaging... it saves me from having to talk to people on the phone, which is the bane of my existence. I've introduced many an introvert to the wonders of IM and SMS, and they almost universally sing the praises of said technologies... once they learn to use them in a way that fits their own communication styles.
I can move forward with my suit against Starbucks? Those bastards didn't verify that dude who asked me out there last week wasn't married! Hmm, what is my pain and suffering worth? Woo hoo... I'm rich!
... the would-be terrorists are well assimilated with lots of friends in the US (thus, all the domestic calls) and overseas calls are expensive as all get out (thus, the infrequency of foreign calls). Nah, that would only apply to 99.99% of the people flagged by this profile.
