Say Hello
Laurie Anderson

A certain American religious sect has been looking at conditions of the world during the Flood.nAccording to their calculations, during the Flood the winds, tides and currents were in an overall southeasterly direction.nThis would mean that in order for Noah’s Ark to have ended up on Mount Ararat, it would have to have started out several thousand miles to the west.nThis would then locate pre-Flood civilization in the area of Upstate New York, and the Garden of Eden roughly in New York City.n Now, in order to get from one place to another, something must move.nNo one in New York remembers moving, and there are no traces of Biblical history in the Upstate New York area.nSo we are led to the only available conclusion in this time warp, and that is that the Ark has simply not left yet.nnLet’s compare this situation to a familiar occurrence:n You’re driving alone at night.n And it’s dark and it’s raining.n And you took a turn back theren and you’re not sure now that it was the right turn,n but you took the turn anywayn and you just keep going in this direction.n Eventually, it starts to get light and you look out and you realizen you have absolutely no idea where you are.nnSo you get out at the next gas station and you say:nnHello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am?nnYou can read the signs. You’ve been on this road before. Do you want to go home?nn Do you want to go home now?nnHello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am?nnYou can read this sign language. In our country, this is the way we say Hello.nn SAY HELLO.nnHello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am?nnIn our country, this is the way we say Hello. nIt is a diagram of movement between two people.nIt is a sweep on the dial. nIn our country, this is also the way we say Goodbye.nnHello. Excuse me. Can you tell me where I am?nnIn our country, we send pictures of people speaking our sign language in Outer Space.nWe are speaking our sign language in these pictures.nnDo you think that They will think his arm is permanently attached in this position?nnOh, do you think They will read our signs?nIn our country, Goodbye looks just like Hello.nn SAY HELLO.n SAY HELLO.n SAY HELLO.
