Thanks Julie. I kind of figured folks blind from birth would have your
experience. Perhaps the reason I like dreams is because I dream in full
color and sight 99.999% of the time. A few times in the latter years I've
dreamt  with blurred vision but not as I see now, which isn't much but
blurry light perception. Anyway, thanks for replying.

Brad,

I hear in dreams, having never sen in my life and having no visual input
to
fuel dreams.  However, i also experience touch and smell in dreams.  Don't
know if I've ever tasted in a dream, though.
