Do you believe you a person can "see with their tongue"?

Question

Did anyone see that show on Public tv last night about the discovery of seeing with your tongue and hearing with your eyes?? What did you think of it.?

Answer 1

yes i can see its very easy

Answer 2

i dont think i do..

Answer 3

I didn't see that- what was the program?  I do know that sensory substitution is a reality- although the receptor types may be less suited to respond to the new input, the plasticity of the nervous system is such that it can adapt to interpret the signals.
