“Could you imagine how socially awkward life would be if, as some are envisioning for our not-too-distant future, we were able to use technologies to communicate mentally rather than verbally? How would we be able to conceal our frustrations, revulsions, condemnations, attractions, criticisms, etc? Consider this, and then recognize how, clearly, one of the primary functions of both verbal and written language is to provide us with a powerful means to lie and deceive”
