When they are role-playing, they are behaving as they *think human beings
behave. It is a model; it is simplistic. We deny that we are inconsistent
and so misrepresent ourselves in role play
O, rather, it is not that we are inconsistent, but that the concept of
consistency which we all seem to share in our assumptions regarding the
constitution of a sane human being, is inappropriate
