Subject: unix fortune, animality

From my linux fortune program:
Last night, I came home and realized that everything in my apartment
had been stolen and replaced with an exact duplicate. I told this to
my friend -- he said, `Do I know you?'
-- Steven Wright
I think of animality, without even the diacritical positioning
of the question. And the utter absence of an answer, but just
as great, the utter presence of the gesture; listening need not
result in reply, nor in the mirror of one, nor an other.
