It's never struck me that way, but I suspect you're right: It's a bad habit we need to break. I always figure it this way: I'm gong to be conveying my confusion, irritation, etc., so I may as well just name it. At least that way I'll be able to make sure it's not misinterpreted. I want to meet Martha! - I'll call you the next time I know I'll be in Palo Alto. Love back at ya! Hi Tom – “poised for polarization” is intriguing.

I want to meet Martha! – I’ll call you the next time I know I’ll be in Palo Alto.

Love back at ya!

Seems to me real leadership in group settings is an art. We are conditioned and poised for polarization, there are habits to be hurdled...You are a delight! I want to be like you when I grow up! Lz You are so cool at this. I want you to meet Martha next time you are down here in these parts, she is the mom of the two artist kids I was talking about. you are going to love Marfie. She is a real kick. So...look at making some time one of these days for the three of us, @ Peets Town and Country... Love Me!
