Such awareness is not equivalent to awareness which comes through overt messages. The fact that the awareness originates without overt messages---gives the awareness a significance different from that which originates in overt messages. An effort to confirm the awareness---is likely to modify the significance of it---even when the awareness is confirmed positively. Such inter-personal awareness is thus in a domain which is sometimes subjected to objective violation. The value of such awareness is not subject to objective confirmation. The value of such awareness is known to those whose lives are enriched by it. They may witness to its value. They know it as a subjective reality, but it cannot be confirmed as an objective reality via traditional scientific procedures. Such subjective awareness often has great practical value. It may transform human lives. It may accomplish what institutions and techniques cannot accomplish. It may realize human potentials which are unresponsive to systematic programs. It may transcend the limitations of science, and free the technocratic society from its collusions. How is it possible for technocrats to recognize sensitive persons? Traditional objective techniques will most likely violate sensitive persons---rather than help identify them. Thus sensitive persons are not likely to make themselves known to a confirmed technocrat; it would be risky to do so. A sensitive person might make tentative approaches to a technocrat who no longer has unquestioning faith in techniques, and who publicly is open about doubts regarding traditional faith in knowledge, skills, techniques, etc. If such tentative approaches are appropriately responded to, communication may begin to bridge the dichotomy between complementary approaches to human situations. Each person may discover that their traditional approach is not the answer to the ultimate questions and dilemmas in the human condition. Such beginnings may help avoid needless tragedy. Through sensitivity, communication is increased and personal potentialities made evident. New questions become evident. Communicants become free to surrender themselves to the fulfillment of human possibilities, rather than to the proliferation of technological machines. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
