No worries, here Gail, I have short term memory loss issues and, were it not for constant reading of the same subject matter over and over again, I would not be able to carry on a converstation. I understand very well. I read alot.
Active "listening" is at least as important as the actual conversation. Sometimes we talk out of the echo chamber of our own minds and lack perspective. The listener adds that needed outside perspective, wouldnt you say?
