And an exceptional front light side. I'm always amazed how most people give the best of themselves during casual social encounters. The big effort we do in social interactions is kind of an art, we're not so good in daily life with our close ones, simply because we can't maintain that effort for so long. Telepathy would ruin this, I guess.

It depends if there were some sort of control mechanism for just how much telepathy was 'allowed' - like, its not - imho - full mind-reading, but rather "selective understanding" from the target sides' point of view .. I wouldn't want to know everything, just a few things during actual real incidents. Therefore, there still has to be a line between individual choice and social sharing.

That truly is the beauty of thinking about it, and letting imagination temper itself with the banality of reality.

Like, for example, the experience of having watched the birth of the Internet, and seen it actually channel itself into 4chan, parish, et al., was .. yeah .. kinda enlightening.

If we Get Telepathic, its going to be useful to have gotten over such things. Just a hunch.
