Discussion -- What do you think?

Discussion -- What do you think about non-verbal communication?

"Your non-verbal communication and body language are related to your culture. Still, some gestures are so communicative that they are universal..." Do you agree?

Hatim has invited us to join the following Voxopop Talkgroup, where you can use your real voice in ongoing, topical discussions...
He needs your input. If you have a microphone on your computer you just need to create a login on Voxopop to participate.... Go ahead and try it. It's a discussion forum for voice messages!

Please add your 2 cents worth!
