Some of the people I regard most highly are or have been seriously
reclusive, including the Unabomber look-alike I saw in the mirror this
morning.

What is wrong with being reclusive? I think it is great not to have to deal with the mass of humanity and its noise. As I write this I am parked behind a house on a farm in the San Benito Valley. I am hearing the faint noise of an airplane but that could well be because of a rather large grass fire not all that far away. There is no danger of it reaching here as the wind is blowing the other way.

I like to control my exposure to people. A chat now and again can be stimulating if the other side is interesting and knowledgeable. Last night I was invited to a showing of an anti Iraq war movie and I found a place away from the crowd but did mingle after, mostly to get nearer the food.

I just need to find a female friend with similar views.
