the sea gives WAY more than listed and effects WAY more on this earth than one usually understands.



-PAIN
-WARMTH
-COLD
-KINESTHETIC {muscle expansion and contraction}

using the word "feel' would cover all this and that comes under touch mostly LOL

It's probably senseless responding to this thread, and I don't know if this will make any sense to you sensible people but, what about "common sense"? Is that a sense? I sense that it could be. I have a sense of pride when I tell folks I feel I have common sense but many of them lack a sense of humor and feel I'm degrading them. Some may find this all nonsense but that's my 2-sense worth. Does this make sense to anyone?? I sense there are those out there that feel the same as I do.

this will probably end up in "Non-sense" forum

FarmerChick. In a way yes, but touch and feel are usually associated with using the hands and you could apply those terms to any part of the body, like your mouth or toes.

 

[FarmerChick]

I feel pain, warmth, cold and feel muscle contractions.
I can't touch pain. but I can touch warmth and cold and touch muscles that twinge under the skin.

ok, touch, feel, with mouth or toes or hands or whatever....I think they are all the same now HAHA

Interesting ... Common Sense ... yes a good one. However isn't there a government regulation to control it? If not, it most certainly is considered politically incorrect to use "common sense". It is probably banned in public school curriculum.
