heehee, I knew what you meant before, I'm just being a ****disturber :-p.

I think the term you were looking for is concious. "...without being concious of their senses."
I almost put in cognizant instead of concious, but cognition includes all the unconcious stuff.

Is sentience the same as conciousness? Can one be sentient without being concious, or concious without being sentient?
