  - Your muscles are telling you what they are doing. It's how you know what kind of object is in your hand, without looking. -- nm - loosilu Oct 28, 10:00
- from wiki: "the sense of the relative position of neighbouring parts of the body and strength of effort being employed in movement." -- (link) - loosilu Oct 28, 09:52 8

        can you explain this bit, just so I know? is it that I make shit up? or that I look shit up? - loosilu Oct 28, 10:13 3
