Exercise A: Have a set of hand signals describing conversational modes and use them during conversation; something along the lines of the Philosophy Referee signals only more relevant, like a hand signal meaning "You are attempting to refute what I just said" or "I am accepting that implicit premise."
Exercise B: Hand signals to describe body language, tone of voice, facial expressions.
(What other continuously changing variables would be good to learn to pay attention to?)
Maybe keep track of strong emotional reaction, with modifiers for how strongly it's affecting your response to the conversation
