"You do not understand my post"

Yes, I do. You don't need to see someone physically to know them. Physical appearance is a minor part of who a person is. Whether or not you have 4 fingers or five is largely irrelevant. I see hundreds of people in a day, but I do not know them until I learn what they feel and what they believe about various matters. In that sense, I know many people on SI far better than I know the thousands of people I see on the streets.

You place far too much emphasis on physical appearance as relevant knowledge in "knowing" a person, IMO. I could look at you for 20 years and know next to nothing about you.
