Persuasion is an elusive art. That is what I am learning from foruming.

From the perspective of writing, it can be difficult to empathize with readers for fear of being reviewed as a softie. I am new to writing.

From the perspective of engineering, it can be difficult to empathize with gearheads for fear of being reviewed as a softie. I am new to engineering.

The closest that I have been to the fire is when I dated an artist. She asked why I did not open doors for her and I did not understand why she did not want to feel the doors.

And at the end of the day we want to talk to each other in real life. A beer summit.

Is the beer summit akin to what we are trying to invent? If so then there are people that know how to do that.

Peace!
