The Secret Service gets upset when you use Presidential candidates for potentially fatal science experiments.

And as una mentioned, the original tests were done with brainless frogs too, w
hich implies that you,d need to find a control Newt that had a brain.

This is not the same thing. That human noises, or rather, the smell sensing cells inside them, adapt to any given smell after 30 min. is well known in science because of experiments. While this is interesting, it doesn’t carry the same metaphor/ analogy as frogs being boiled to death because they don’t notice that the temp. is dangerous.

Can people get used to sounds too? I feel that’s possible. Wonder which senses we CAN’T ignore. I agree that threats to life probably can’t be ignored like background diversions.
