Public spaces would be so much...more pleasant without out all the loud, one-sided conversations. I know I've had conversations on my cell phone that I didn't really mean for others to hear - it's so easy to forget where you are when you start talking. I hear "Real Talk"-style arguments far too frequently. I want to know where it stops though. We obviously think things and don't say them, even as we're having conversations. I just want to know that I can still control what I communicate. We are highly evolved verbalizers - would there be unforeseen repercussions for keeping the words in our heads?
