Why can't more people be content to simply sit in silence? I have a rich inner life and a vivid imagination, and I am quite content to sit in an intermission of a play/concert/whatever and simply be. But people I am with are immediately bursting into conversation, which is often no more meaningful than listening to recorded music as far as intellectual stimulation goes. there are too many people who have too great a need to hear something and when there's nothing else to hear, they speak. Nothing important, just something so there's no silence.
Hey, we're primates! That means we're fundamentally both noisy and grabby--and we hang out in flocks. Deal with it :-)
