I thought this article was fascinating. Maybe some of you will, too.

Interesting article Coda... thanks for posting it.

It does seem that there would definitely be survival value for a child to be able to tune into what others are doing, both in physical actions and emotional sensitivities.

I'd submit, though, that for the researchers to call it "mind reading" might be a bit of stretch...
