Sorry if this is a little confusing.  I sent this before I sent the Amara reply.

Empathy, folks.  It's all about empathy.

So how do you generate empathy?

I've repeatedly said storytelling, because it's a proven method.  But if you all have another way to do it, or have a theory of how it can be achieved, I recommend we come up with it as soon as possible, concurrent with H+ therapies and enhancements.  In fact, it may be more important than the H+ augmentations themselves in the short term.

Because we're gonna need it.
