Plate XXV · The Art of Conversation
The argument
An essential personal skill. Social media and the 24-hour news cycle have dumbed down everyday language. "Text speak" has reduced communication to abbreviated spelling and emojis. The casualty has been the wonderful art of conversation. Good conversationalists generally enjoy better lives — they interact more effectively, get better jobs, and have more interesting friends. Nothing identifies a person as intelligent as powerfully as the ability to converse.
