If you speak to another there is only one way to make sure that is actually getting through their ears. Questions, which are somewhat based on the words spoken are such are determining factor. When one says they agree what are the actually agreeing with? If someone makes a similar or contrarian statement to your words can you really rest assurred that they have been listening? Yet questions open discussions that allow conversation and listening to actually occur. So throw them my way and hopeful I can answer them correctly otherwise maybe I should be the one asking them instead..
