mmunication might work, how ever fictional, this might happen to almost anyone. So what does this tell us? It is a demonstration how easily something like: "yes, just go along you'll bump into it in a while" turns into: "yes, you've got the right direction, but you've got a long way to go". Who is to blame? Some communicational theories emphasise that if a message doesn't go through it always is the fault of the sender.

So I take my sunglasses, put them on, look straight at him and watch him blush like the mountains in Death Valley during sunset right after a nuclear experiment". The other one lets out an uncomfortable giggle and says: "Well that's nothin...
