What is there to talk about?
The question should be taken literally. We can talk about the weather
- which means just making casual contact, assuring each other that we
are temperate in nature and not about to erupt in torrential outbursts.
We can talk about politics - if we can assume certain shared
convictions that will prevent other kinds of storms and disruptions. We
can talk about family - if we can assume that we take that kind of a
personal interest in each other.
