And sorry for asking (I think) all the questions on the FAQ
Don't worry about it :-) Nobody who asked these questions is at fault for having done so; it's perfectly reasonable that they might want to know the answers! It's only people who ask questions when a FAQ is conveniently available who are culpable, and in this particular case that probably won't be true even now I've written it...
Anyway, your questions:
1. No; it's never bothered me enough to go to the effort.
2. If it were easy I'd probably give it a try out of curiosity, and I suppose the experience might conceivably change my answer to 1 :-)
When I watched "Strange Days", one of the people I saw it with made reference to the scene where the guy with no legs gets given a sensory recording of an athlete running along a beach, and suggested that if I lived in that world I could try a sensory recording from a smell-rich environment of some sort. It hadn't so much as occurred to me while actually watching the film, though, so I'm clearly not that desperately curious to know :-)
I haven't got a gas leak detector, no, but it might be a good idea now you mention it...
