The Art of Reading Lips

We live in an age of information. All the information are spread very fast, precisely and in a very long distance through the web, media etc.

Information has although different ways that can be transmitted and reproduced. Some of them are the oral way, written, by typing and an almost new method is the reading of the lips.

This weird method was developed in the cold war. From a long distance and without being able to hear a conversation, somebody had to find out what somebody else was saying in order to prevent bad situations.

Nowadays this method remains in some secret information services like CIA, FBI, KGB etc. Some secret agents know this way of intercepting valuable information. It seems very harmful but can change dramatically an unfortunate political event.

In diplomatic meetings, in which different countries are changing many information for their own benefit, there are always people who can read lips from a far distance. This people could be everyone who trained himself to such kind of reproduction of valuable information. It could be our President our even the waiter that stands in the corner to serve you with a glass of wine.
