Margarita,

I know what you mean, but I find it a double edged sword. While I like the ability to take the time to think up an answer I also find a certain lack of ability to express ones self clearly (I can't wave my hands about) or to read other's expressions.

Charlie,
How can you tell the Mudcateers at a song circle?

They are the ones standing around talking about threads instead of singing:-)

Bert.
