kay................... did you know {from recent (+10 yrs) MRI's and brain scans data} all human babies are born w/
Synesthesia.
from birth to about 6 months. they see/hear/touch/smell/ and taste THE WORLD as one sense and then neural pathways are trimmed and connected to more specific parts of the brain.
and think of this too re:
Synesthesia. taste&smell are two senses rolled into one? HUH???
how does food taste w/ a stuffy nose?
