A quotation from Fry, Stephen:

«
Education is the sum of what students teach each other in between lectures and seminars.

A quotation from Post, Emily:

@rhettbratt I was just thinking that there don't seem to be many on Mastodon. It's mostly what I call bumper stickers. And then I thought how about looking at hash tag . I find conversations in rather than in supermarkets. They aren't necessarily religious, they have cafe style meetings and people just sit and converse.

I'm nervous about a party tomorrow.
But if sis wants me to attend then I shall!

Any advice for being a good conversationalist?
