Very difficult. I ...Yes, there would be no secrets! Very difficult. I love how Katsa handles Po's mind-reading though. It puts her in a terrible situation, yet she uses it to communicate to him while keeping Bitterblue safe (kind of like parents spelling words they don't want the child to overhear) I found the whole concept played out in the book fascinating.Janet Lee Careyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15097883379365834554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-11353258276750358332009-09-18T07:40:23.492-07:002009-09-18T07:40:23.492-07:00I think it would be fun, useful and creepy at the ...I think it would be fun, useful and creepy at the same time. You would be able to communicate without others knowing, therefore sharing intimate moments without people eavesdropping. But that would probably be cool for a few days, and then things would probably get spooky and weird. I don't think I would like that at all actually, but would love to have a go at it if I could, just to see (hum, hear) what it's like.Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13270683124723296786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-65126042433395269402009-09-14T12:36:50.972-07:002009-09-14T12:36:50.972-07:00Interesting.

I think it would all go deeper underground into our subconscious mnds where it could potentially be very damaging.Dia Calhounhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14292548122662586492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-31416163484107197732009-09-14T11:41:29.103-07:002009-09-14T11:41:29.103-07:00Good point, Little Willow!

I like thinking about Melissa's idea, too, though. If <i>everyone</i> could read <i>everyone's</i> mind, we'd all get used to trying to filter out what doesn't matter. But would we really always know what doesn't matter? And what about secrets? Would they no longer exist as a concept?Kristin Cashorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05560274772312684672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-84473857062097721592009-09-14T10:00:41.630-07:002009-09-14T10:00:41.630-07:00Ooh, I'd really not like it if people could re...Ooh, I'd really not like it if people could read my mind.

With love comes a vast array of emotions, not always pretty, and to have to constantly guard against a mind reader, or to have to change what you think so your love doesn't get hurt by your thoughts...I'd think there would be a lot of resentment.Vivian Mahoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11285339307161020541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-89538632717571784212009-09-12T08:44:41.774-07:002009-09-12T08:44:41.774-07:00It would not be cool if the one I loved could read...It would not be cool if the one I loved could read my mind.

But then they'd know me as much as I do, I guess. <br /><br />I always thought it would be cool to be Deanna Troi on Star Trek's Next Generation. Not to have to wear her tight suit though.
