Here

in London
there are just over a million numbers I could dial within the central area.

Probably a thousand million in the world.

And almost all of them we never ring, though they're only seconds away.

Why is that ?


Is it that we're still living the local life, treating nearly everyone as strangers, when we've been living for nearly a century in a world, a new reality of selves and other selves, in which those old taboos are completely out of date?
