Hello Oshiro Pauline Claire Jason and all, Pauline,I can't agree with you any more.I think what you said intuitions equals knowlege and experience is definitely right.I should point out that there are many special situations we should believe ours intuitions.For example,many of us must have watched the "prison break".With every evidence proved Lincoln was guilty at the begining,but Michael believed Lincoln was innocent just with his intuitions.:)So maybe sometimes intuitions are indeed useful to us.
