So those doors that spontaneously open up around the island. I'm given to understand that they lead to people's home worlds. Does that actually allow us to communicate with people back in our own realities? Or is it just like a holodeck program, where it appears to be home, but nothing we do there actually has lasting influence on that reality? I'd like to know if mine still exists.

Also, do we get new seasons of TV shows here? Because the second half of the final season of Breaking Bad starts up in a month. Obviously, I would not want to miss that.

	Question. Do people sound the same when they think as they do when they speak? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Only when they're attempting to directly send a thought. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What about otherwise? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then no, because half of all thoughts are memories and memories are influenced by more than just our own voice. Also, authors always speak in their minds in the voice of the character they are writing as they write it. Or attempt to, anyway. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I guess that makes sense. I usually remember others, more or less, as they sounded. Although sometimes they just end up sounding like me. When I remember you, for example, about 30% of the time you just sound like me doing a British accent.

Do they really? I'd ask you what the strangest thing you've heard or noticed about other people's minds was, but I guess nothing is particularly surprising or unusual to you about the way that people think now.

	You also talk to yourself a great deal. Nothing is surprising or unusual anymore, no. I just consider it... "new". (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Mind reading, or deductive reasoning? Either way, you're not wrong. What read to you get from this place? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Reasoning, I don't always have to read minds to read people. Um. "New." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know. Or I knew, when I knew a version of you. But I wanted to see how far the similarities went. (Must say, I prefer you with hair.) Brilliant deduction, Mr. Holmes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you, I like having hair. I've only been here a hot minute. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Fair enough. I haven't been here long, either. A few weeks. Haven't been able to gather much more than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
