If we could communicate telepathically that would mean we could "read" each other's minds. I don't want any part of that. Do you? Why?

Having people invade your mind at will would scare the crap outta me. The last vestige of privacy gone? I don't think I could handle it.

What people say and what they think ideally matches. But when it doesn't usually what they are thinking is hurtful or painful or negative or derogatory. Who needs THAT?
