A choice... - Page 2

I dont think all of you are reading the question right....
It says they are going to remove all but one, so you have to choose which one to keep, not which one to lose.....

Anyways, I would choose sight probably...

Sorry, Callum.... too late. That one's obviously gone already

sorry, but you left yourself wide open on that one.

And you're correct, Hivetyrant. I read it completely wrong.

Sight is probably the best. You are able to see your surroundings of weather they are bad or nice. If you have not this sense then you wouldn't know what to do, for example, if you had but smell and a foe came up that smelled like roses but was pointing sharp at your head, you would probably think it was a friendly. Hearing is the second best because you can hear how aggressive they are ect ect.. Touch may be useful, but it isn't good if your walking blindly and you accidently fall of a cliff.. Taste is pointless whatsoever.. Unless it's johhny's favourite beverage, or everyones favourite an apple pie.

My point is that without touch you couldn't walk. Without touch you would not know where your legs were unless you were looking at them. And even if you were looking at them it would probably feel like operating someone elses legs by controlling the electric current flowing through them. And without a mirror you couldn't tell whether your mouth was open or closed and if you bit your tongue off you woudn't know for a long time. And unless you actively concentrated in blinking every once in a while, your eyes would dry and get infected.

[/QUOTE]Well blinking is actualy controlled by the same part of the brain which controlls breathing, heart beating ect... So you would blink anyway. You blink in your sleep to, and if you did look in he mirror if you did bite your tougne, you would know.

Sight: Allows your Brain Processing Unit to process your graphical interface.
Hearing: Allows your BPU to process your sound environment.
Touch: Allows your BPU to accept response from the user interface.
Taste: Allows the BPU to process the acquisition of animal, or industrial by products.
Smell: Allows the BPU to process what is in the air.
Sixth Sense: The most important of all, but useless as a stand alone. For the BPU must process at least two of the 5 in order to create a 'fight or flight' sense of urgency!

Therefore I would choose to keep taste!
