And without doing any research at all, if you, for example, posted in a year or two that you had had no siblings, I would know something about you that you hadn't intended me to know. The most interesting thing about SI is how much we know about each other through what is revealed unintentionally, or undesignedly. It's the same in 3D, of course. There's the person's conscious persona, the one they think they're presenting, and, just the way it happens in 3D, there's the whole other story. Mostly what makes a person here 'real,' and interesting, to us, is what we see between their lines. We have neighbors whom we've seen, or had exchanges with, hundreds of times, about whose 'essences' I know more than they are aware I know, but much less than I know about many SI posters'. This is how I can imagine SI posters believing that no one knows more than they are told about them: They actually believe they are revealing little about their true 'selves,' here.
