Some people remember IMAGES which can contain more information than a thousand words in a well defined sequence; because AN-IMAGE contains crisscross associations at right angles and at slant angels and at various distances - - - offering far more information than just a linear sequences of a thousand words in one lined-up ordered set of letters within one-straight-line. The IMAGE of a SQUARE-MATRIX of 31 words-on-a-side contains in addition to the sequence of 961 words; information about how far each word is across the matrix from every other word; and ALSO tells in what direction across the matrix every word is. The potential INFORMATION-CONTENT goes up much farther if instead of just the letters of one alphabet in upper and lower case - - - each letter-place can contain a tiny picture made of colored pixels with the full range of colors, light and darkness for each pixel. Each pixel can contain over ten "bits" of information encoded within it - - - and its position can distinguish it from all the other pixels in the whole image. Thus a high-resolution color picture often takes of the order of a MEGABYTE of computer storage space; far more space than a page of text takes. People who can remember and recall many images of people's faces with associated information about those people's relationships with other people, issues, conflicts, causes, talents, etc. - - - are DIFFERENT-FROM other people who cannot recall and inter-associate such images. Different people are different because of the differences between their: gifts, talents, abilities, injuries, handicaps, fears, terrors, etc. We cannot reasonably hope to MITIGATE OUR OWN ALIENATIVE CONFLICTS - - - if we are ignorant of and indifferent to - - - how different people are different from each other in regard to what they can remember and relevantly use within the context of current interactions with other different people. SIMILARLY - - - We cannot reasonably hope to MITIGATE OUR OWN ALIENATIVE CONFLICTS - - - if we are ignorant of and indifferent to - - - how different people are different from each other in regard to other GIFTS, TALENTS, HANDICAPS, INJURIES, AND WAYS-OF-BEING-ALIENATED-FROM-EACH-OTHER-PERSON! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THINK TOGETHER in SHALOM ABOUT THE-COSTS-OF-ALIENATION!
