[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm from Georgia, not Orlando. My point was EVEN PEOPLE NOT FROM FLORIDA know to not go near brackish water like that. In Florida. I'm sure I could similarly detect a not safe environment in Nebraska because shit that's not safe doesn't look safe! [/quote]

You're local to gator country, that was my point.  And no, you won't "detect" an unsafe environment that is beyond your experience.  Don't kid yourself.[/quote]

I've been trekking in the Himalayas, not local to my indigenous habitats. And could tell when a particular rock face looked not so stable for climbing. And I didn't climb. Hey those hot springs at Yellowstone sure are pretty but  you can tell you shouldn't be in them! The brain has these awesome alert systems that detect danger! I think someone upthreead nailed it; people in Nebraska would not go in that water anywhere else in Florida but in the Magic Kingdom people seriously seem to think they're in a magical land with no real world intrusions or worries.[/quote]
