OT - Sensory Overload

[Richard Brekne]

Strike me as the opposite is really the truth of the matter Annie. At 
least in the present world.  It may be that we needed ultra 
sensitivities when are environment was jungle, sahara or the wild in 
general.  In that case they indeed were advantageous.  But your 
descriptions of reactions to various stimuli resulting in uges to pound 
your head into the floor sound far more like a problem then less 
affected people have.  Especially given the fact that these seem to be 
far in the majority.

    I'm pretty sure that humans are supposed to be sensitive to all these
    things -- it's what kept us alive for most of our time on earth --
    and those
    who aren't sensitive are actually the ones with a problem who should
    have to
    adjust.  Unfortunately, I don't get to be Queen of the Universe this
    week!
