Not so Unless by interaction you also mean watching them, smelling then, etc. You fail to realize how animal we are. We get information from the smell of people- we may even choose our mates based on that- without knowing that we do. We take in all the twitches and movements, ticks and smiles- in sum, with no conversation, and no "sharing"- you've already taken in more information from a person that you could get in dialog for weeks. You just don't know you have, apparently. I have seen what this lack of information can do to a person in 3d. They are crippled in social interaction. Just as we, to some extent, are incomplete cripples here. We are little bits of expressions of people. And you want to spin a whole human out of that, it is very odd.
