[stylist] descriminative against voices.

[Shelley J. Alongi]

I would say that in my own personal experience sometimes I will make an 
assessment of someone based on a voice but it doesn't always turn out to be 
correct. A voice is a sound file used by me to draw out other information 
stored in my brain; it connects a person to my mental storage based on a 
voice rather than a picture. A picture is the icing on the cake for me. I 
enjoy pictures. Voices give me an audio information system, pictures fill in 
details and experiences with the people fill out the rest of the experience. 
A person's voice for me is only a small part of the rest of the person. 
Voices have different qualities when there are conversations going on that 
can make me think they're distracted, disinterested, or very interested. I 
have to be careful about using voices as the only means of knowing something 
about a person because it's not an entire representation. It's like living 
in a one dimensional world.
