Well, for me that's a theoretical question, because I can't envision a scenario where I'd be removed from positive experiences, which would somehow have to exclude me from cool urban stuff as well as beautiful rural stuff. No sunbeams, kittycats, ice cream, money, or wimmin...

In theory you're right, but the only scenario I can posit where that might actually apply is in the face of death, but that's obviously a very special case in many ways, and one where we can't really predict how we'll respond.

I dunno. Can you think of a real-world example that either of us could relate to? It'd have to be an awful lot of deprivation to limit one's positive experience so dramatically. Or, alternately, the kind of wholesale change in outlook I mention above, but in reverse, where you somehow "stop registering" those events as positive.
