| Need more to be sure. Sounds as if the author believes that laughter was 'discovered' when someone tickled someone else (a baby?). It is impossible to tickle yourself - if I tickle the bottom of my own feet it will give me a funny feeling - but I will not laugh. Last edited by oregeezer; 18-Feb-2008 at 07:01. Reason: Typo |
