Why doesn't all the world tell stories?

I really do admire Simmons. I really think she is trying to reteach the way humans communicated in the day before print. It is a powerful way to teach, entertain, and motivate people. But I think that if your really did just tell stories, it would lose it magic. There is a reason for powerpoints, list, memos; and that is time. Lets take from her these skills and mix with them what we already know. A story is a great way to lead off a meeting, a lecture, or a celebration, but I feel that just as a powerpoint with all text, one with all stories will be just as damaging.
