This is not at all unusual. There is something to be said about direct contact. It lends to verification that the communication was received and understood, confirms accountability for any required action and allows for immediate clarification if required. While you and I may believe that this "old fart" method of communication passed with the dark ages, if it makes an executive more comfortable and thereby increases his/her effectiveness then it's our responsibility as the keepers and configurators of the technology to make every effort to give them what they need to succeed.
