General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

I wasn't going to say this for fear of being called a "crank" which can happen on here from time to time!

If you think about it logically, when mankind first realised that it might be a good idea to bury their dead instead of leaving corpses to rot where they lay, and then start to make fires, they had to rely on their instincts which gave warning of things to come! They could literally "smell" danger because our senses were more heightened then.

As we've evolved (?) those senses have been taken over by many things over the 1000s of years, which have left us without those senses to rely on any longer. All the animals of this planet sense danger, or know something is going to happen. This is evident in many circumstances, when birds and animals suddenly take flight without there being an obvious reason for it, but there always is. They just know!

We have lost that ability for the biggest part because our brains and sensitivity to things have altered due to evolution. However, there are some who still have that ability and, if re-developed, can be revived. This is what we call 6th sense, but in reality, it's probably our first sense. Survival!

Reet! Ya can all laff at me now. I can take it!
