What other innatenesses do we allow to control our reactions?

A boobie is a body part just like the tail of a monkey but like gravity one can not deny the boobies attraction and reaction upon action.

Such rigid, inflexible behavior supports the notion that the brain contains a built-in model of gravity

Or maybe, just possibly, it supports the notion that these astronauts had decades of practice working in earth gravity, and only a couple weeks to get used to weightlessness.

[after fifteen days] we did begin to see some evidence of adaptation. Hm.
