Since my hearing is shot, I have to go with smell. That's the most advanced area of the brain (which ain't sayin' much for me) so I'll go with that.
Depends on the environment I'm in. In the bush--- hearing in the city-- sight. In thin, dry area---smell.
Gotta agree with Trax on this one. Depends on the situation and what you're trying to sense. Here's a submarine example. High pressure air leak - sound and sight. It's a defening sound, but to find it is another story. Moving slowly with a regular old broom in front of you - when the broom is suddenly cut in half - you've found the leak. Detecting a hot run torpedo - smell. Once you smell almonds (hydrogen cyanide) you've got just about enough time to sound an alarm so that everybody else doesn't die. Locating stuff in the dark or in a smoke filled area - touch.
My gut feeling has always paid off for me. I'm not a gambler but risks and gut feelings go hand in hand.
"gut feeling" I guess if it means the primitive part of my brain that correlates on going information acquired by the other senses as well as experienced interpretation of this info.
Kind of whats wrong with the setting? little hairs standing up, your guts turning over, a sense of dread something is not right.
Got to learn to recognise it and interpret it properly
Once again, Trax and Crash come through. I didn't even think about a varying situation. I just focused on the choices. I think they are correct it would depend on the situation.
Crash - High pressure leak? One more reason for me not to join the submarine force (like I even needed one more).
A little 4500 pound air never hurt anybody. Nope. Cuts you in half so fast you don't feel a thing.
Run away torpedo....check.
High pressure air leak....check.
Possible implosion.....check.
Taking on water......check.
Nuclear leak.......check.
Just going down my list of reasons I don't want to be on one.
Months at sea.....check.
Sleeping between missile tubes.....check.
Turning a glowing red.....check.
Never work for me either I like to sleep with the window open. Boat thingies should be on the top of the water. Since I can't hear, need glasses and have sinus trouble I guess gut feeling has served me well for many years. I pay close attention to how I feel and act accordingly. I have overreacted many times since I moved to the hills but I am getting better since I know it's safer but if I have that "feeling" I trust it.
Which sense would be the hardest to fool.
If you have been fooled how do you know , who knows what is real? ;)
There you guys go again - talking to rocks. Let's see.....which would be hardest to fool? Duck blinds, ghillie suits, lighting....I guess sight is pretty easily fooled. Deer scent, deoderant, air freshner in outhouse....I guess smell is pretty easily fooled. Spices and seasoning.....I guess taste is pretty easily fooled. Loud disorienting noise, game calls, ventriloquist....I guess hearing is pretty easily fooled. Gloves....I guess touch is pretty easily fooled. Gut feeling? Who knows? I'm gonna go with Beerrunner on this one.
I have to say gut feeling. I've talked about this one before, too. Efferent feelings, those clues you subconsciously pickup, are inherent in just about every animal. It's almost always a precursor to fight or flight and we've honed them over thousands of generations. My body and brain are telling me something and I'd darn well better listen.
"gut feeling" is generally a combination of different things that your other senses have picked up that you might not be immediately aware of (think subliminal advertising, you saw it, but don't realize that you did) and the combination of sensory receptors sending similar signals to the brain makes you go Hey....something wrong here, or I should go this way on the path or whatever. It's why "gut feeling" is so reliable, it's a combination of your senses actually working congruently. Except I can't explain that weird feeling when you know someone's watching you...oh Nora's perched on the windowsill behind me again, never mind, it's ok.
I hear my body and my brain are telling me "It is FIVE O' CLOCK somewhere", must be Margaretta time here, at 8:28 AM, OK so it is 5:28 somewhere.Quote:

You also have to consider that your watch just might be wrong. When you sober up you really don't know if it's morning or night so you might as well go for it.
If it is summer it is morning, if it is winter it is night. Just a little perflight eyeopener, don't want to fly with eyes wide SHUT.:pQuote:

Is that a man carrying a rifle or a walking stick? There are some things that I'm not ever going to touch or taste, period. Mostly based on what I've already smelled, so again, I still am in agreement with you.Quote:
