Yes, if it weren't for "listeners" or readers [laughter]. Yet the
screen offers us the possibility of masking, that distortion that is
there and more or less is a guarantee that communication with you is
impossible as per usual. Also, it is a filter of information, a
selective sieve that test for "nuances of reverence" in so far as it
can operate as a signature "that goes its way umarked, undiscovered,
tempting, perhaps capriciously concealed and disguised, like a living
touchstone" ( #263 B&G). 

A presto,
Ari
