But it does open up possibilities for passing notes among the people at your site about the behavior and appearance of people at the other site.

On a conference call my lack of impulse control allowed me to say something terribly flip and it really wasn't meant to be offensive. To this day it haunts me and I can't bring it up, so to speak.
