| For many years I wondered what was going on in human connction that i didn't get, I thought there must be some "back channel" that eluded me. then I found that the "back channel" is emotion. then i found that in most human communication it is not the back channel, but the front one.

So math (as formulae) positively related to concepts owned mentally by me I grok. On the other hand; a bunch of terms hanging unsuspended in mid air - typically the way it is taugh... |

| I have emotions too. My trouble is that I seem to lack some sort of emotional IQ. I have them, I know that others have them too, but I don't grok - even my own. So I try to deal with them as a black box - even my own. I have learned how to deal with external society fairly well, but am still perplex... |
