I read the same book Julie, like you a long time ago. I don't recall colors and sound as part of the spectrum, but its always been like that for me. I once went to a meditation group that used Eastern music to assist your trance. As I meditated with the group I saw a huge twisting saw blade approaching me, writhing and snaking it's way through the air. I left, and haven't been back.

Current research has shown that the brains of people with this gift (or curse) are organized differently. PET images show that areas of the brain not associated with taste or smell etc. are lit up when stimulated by aromas etc. Possibly this is a primitive survival mechanism.

Back to one of Scubert's riddles. How many senses
are there and which was the first? Answer, all of them!
