Yes, I'm sure that some people have a stronger sensitivity to sour or bitter, etc. I'm curious whether sweet, sour, etc. mean the same thing to everybody. I know what sweet tastes like to me. Does it taste like that to others too?
I know during my training as an OT in sensory integration, we learned a lot about textures (of foods even) and how they affect the central nervous system and, therefore, how people with autism react to them. Interesting stuff.
And Sydney: My liberal arts classes days are long gone! Now, it's just a Master's in IT security that I'm working toward. I have had my share of philosophy courses and they made me absolutely crazy, keeping me awake at night thinking about questions that have no answers! Physics did the same thing to me. If something is traveling faster than the speed of light.. oh my, it makes my brain hurt.
