    The psychology behind it is that people typically will like you more the more they talk (therefore the less you are talking)

    No, that's not quite it. not the concept the author is trying to get across. The author is trying to get across the point that not everyone wants someone else to fix their problem for them. sometimes just by talking about the problem outloud to someone simply willing to listen, seriously listen without interrupting, allows a person to work things out for themselves. Not everyone processes things internally and silently.

    I wasn't speaking about the author or book specifically, I've never read it so I'll take your word for it. Sounds like what facebook has turned into

    Sounds like there's a shortage of good men. Hmmm, that doesn't surprise me.

    that's because they kicked all the men out. they only let them in to fix tractors and such so they can keep making more whine.

    i think the text of the town ordinance actually reads: 'hmmmpf, men! ban them all! where did all the men go? they always run off, hmmmpf men!'
