> Fair enough, I never confirmed that you felt I heard you. Like I said, I'm still new at this myself. What I heard you saying was that you felt there was the possibility of real human communication with this technique. Is that right?

It's in the more natural communication that I feel more connected with others.
So that if you were to express some of your own feelings, hopes, and insecurities (which you did to some extent) I would feel more on the same page with you than if you just used the terminology of a new technique.
So that anything that has overtones of groupspeak is likely to arouse in me feelings of being alone, not on the same page. But that openness and genuine communication could allay that feeling of alienation.
Does that make sense to you? Or resonate in any way?
Actually, I think this technique might work reasonably well in communications with you, Dr. Bob. So it may be a question of different people responding differently to the same technique.
