That was a fine rant. We will discuss this topic further. Promise.

Funny about the Quix test. I make people pass the Bag test. If they fail, they are not allowed in the presence of he who is most mighty. Me.

Few are chosen.

Usually, some brave souls experience a kind of mutual grokking session with Qx at great emotional intensity and start out on a great new friendship.

Then they start feeling vulnerable, frightened and soon abandon ship. That's the usual form of the Qx text.

His B.A. program Japanese Hawaiian roommate was a delayed case in point.

Qx's desk and bed were on the West wall of their room. Elli's desk and bed were opposite on the East wall. The door was on North East corner. The sink the North west corner.

Qx would be sitting at his desk looking at his book and not look up when Elli came in.

Elli would sit down at his desk and begin to study or whatever and KNOW full well that Qx knew what Elli was thinking--accurately--without either of them ever saying anything. That became intolerable to Elli and he moved out.

And his boss once told his wife that Quix knows what you are thinking before you know that you don’t want him to know what you are thinking.
