>I But isn't it curious that you were inspired to write all this by just a misunderstanding?

The misunderstanding did not inspire me. I got into a discussion with Katerina whether you are arrogant or not. She suggested it was just teasing and only then I thought up the �ape with animal reflexes� explanation. Before that I never thought about what you exactly meant with it. I interpreted the message as a kind of �bull with red flag� remark. I often have to interpret your messages and this time I interpreted it wrong. The �banana with salt� interpretation I find even more annoying. But it is very simple: You, your personality, inspired me to write that message.

>Yeah, we have to put up with this trouble of all virtual contacts. We see the phrases written but we can't hear the intonations of each otner's voices, can't look into the
eyes of each other, can't feel the warmth of each other's hands. We are deprived of non-verbal components, meanwhile they could tell us more than words.

That�s the best part of our contact. As a child I loved prisoner stories: The prisoner is all alone in his cell and then he hears a knocking on the wall. After a while he understands it�s a code and then a difficult conversation starts. It is a metaphor for real life.

>Did you often make such analyses with a psych?

No.

>When you like it so much, why not edit it and place on your homepage?

Who told you I have a homepage?

>After 16 month? No idea what happened on December, 9, 2000.

The exact date I don�t know. And I am not going to investigate it.

>Now I know: you always celebrate grand victories, getting me on mistakes!
:-)

You put a smiley behind this remark. Does that mean I don't have to take it serious?

>It's OK, Peter. Don't worry.
I always worry.
