Yesterday after my concert I got a standing ovation. I am pleased and would NOT like a computer readout of two guys in the back of the hall "HUH we also have to drag ourselves to our feet for this very-average performance " My brain is my last bastion of privacy...don't take that away from me please! We need lies, as much as the truth, in our social interactions. Life might be intolerable otherwise. Deepq.
