This is so cool. Click on the link to read the CNN article about a woman who not only hears sounds but also sees and tastes them. http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/science/03/03/taste.sounds.reut/index.html

I'd heard of synaesthesia before, but this is the first I've heard of someone being able to literally taste music.

Also mega-cool was the news on booksquare that the New York Public Library had opened their digital gallery http://www.nypl.org/digital/digitalgallery.htm with a mere 275,000 images for your browsing pleasure.
