an unfinished cycle of communication generates what might
be called answer hunger. An individual who is waiting for a signal that his
communication has been received is prone to accept any inflow. When an
individual has, for a very long period of time, consistently waited for answers
which did not arrive, any sort of answer from anywhere will be pulled in to
him, by him, as an effort to remedy his scarcity of answers. (Dn 55!, p. 66)
