I also do that.... I will wait awhile after receiving an email to send a reply if it's someone who I don't want to have the expectation of regular contact with.
Unfortunately, most people prefer to talk rather than write. A lot of people have much poorer writing/reading skills than verbal communication skills. How often have you sent someone an email with three questions and the response is like, "Here's an answer to only the first thing you asked, have a nice day!" I have to assume that is the product of just being bad at communicating through written word.
