Sending stuff over the Intenet..
Do you think that what you think about a persona here.. that is to say.. a personality or at least a part of.. moves.. changes.. a/the receiver in any such way?
If I think of what I know as someone.. its a collection of memories from a variety of sources.. about them.. collectively them. They are parts to the whole. My conception of them.. of you.. of everyone who is not me and me.
How much do I/you/we really compare how well we know someone? and flow the thoughts,
By the way.. you are fucking awesome man.

over the internet you will never be sure how a person is. person-to-person, you also will never know, just think about yourself, how many times do you want to say something but you shut up because of the consecuences? the people around you won't know the real you, because you didn't show them, now think that everyone has those moments, thouse thoughts that we have about other people, things, events, etc... the human mind would be a fucking mess for another human mind, its just too secretive for someone else to really know for sure everything about someone else. Look at the recent case in england(i think) where some guy kept his daughter in a basement for 24 years i think, he had a wife and other kids, and relatives, and probably a few of them thought they had the old man figured out...

we are the sum of our experiences.
No two totals are identical.
Heres a question for you.
How many generations of humans will it take before identical dna begins turning up ?
My guess would be that the number is incalculable, but still exists..

zerodown... just becaue you don't say something.. does that mean you are not being the 'real' you? There are lots of things we could say and maybe want to say but don't.. and if we don't say them.. but wihch is a more true perspective of our self.. the things we think about and don't say.. or the things we chose to say or express? Also what do you think about the idea that someone who reads or listens to what you say may actually know more about that particular part of your self than you do...? It sounds a little disconcerting, but i definitely feel that some people could read certain aspects of me.. better than me.

the mode of media influences the message greatly.
its like comparing the difference of a phone call to an email to a face to face discussion to a billboard advertisement
