I asked Goldman if he thought I could develop these skills, and he says that our underlying needs are set by age five or six, and our usual behaviors are set by age 22.

I say thank you, and then I see there is an LCD above each window in the whole place that shows the number and letter sequence that is almost like mine but not really mine. I'll try to add mine here.

He has asked me to not talk over him, but I have a hard time telling if it is his turn to talk or mine. It’s mine. I tell myself I have to develop a shorthand sign for manure, because I need him to not put it so close to the house.
