6、lence.Nobody spoke to me nor,as I expected,to anyone else they did not know.They felt it was not polite to intrude on someone elses privacy.However,when I travelled across the United States,whether by plane or Greyhound bus,I was never short of conversation.Conversation was going on all around me an
