Not me. I always forget something. Also Angel, I filled your pipe with rat poison to see what would happen in 5 minutes. Just you know, FYI. |

You think that's crazy bro? You know that old saying, if a tree falls in a forest and if nobody is there to hear it, does it make a sound?
Well what if nobody knows about it? Then it's like it doesn't even exist man! That's crazy bro, crazy! |

I dont know what is so damn ZEN about that supposibly unanswerable question. It is scientific fact that the tree would cause sound waves to reverberate through the air. They would exist whether or not someone was there to hear it. And thats not even taking into consideration that there is ALWAYS some type of animal, insect, or organism within hearing distance of the fallen tree. Unless you are talking about a tree that still stood after the Mount Saint Hellens blast that killed every other living thing for miles, only for it then to fall over suddenly after the Pyroclastic flow had long sense abated. Only if a tree fell on the moon in a total vacuum of space would it not make a sound if it somehow was able to survive transport their in the first place. |

Yes, Coonk, but it's a thought exercise: If we don't percieve something to be real, is it there at all? If everybody believes something to be real, then is it? It's hard to imagine something happening without being perceived; that's how our brains are hardwired, same as how we can't imagine death, or birth. It's an interesting question, and you're just being cynical. Now, that's not bad, necessarily, I'm cynical and skeptical a lot of the time as well., but come on. It makes you think.
What's much more answerable is the question, "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" Basic knowledge of the theory of evolution tells you the answer is "the egg", because the chicken evolved over time. *hides from Creationists* |

It still sucks as a thought exercise. Everything is connected. Every event influences every other event, even if that influence is too small for you to notice at first. Things begin existing well before you ever notice them, otherwise they would never be able to come to your attention.
If someone puts salt on your food when you aren't observing them, you'll still be able to taste the difference. A single mote of dust may be too small for you to see, but a thousand are clearly visible, because everyone of those motes that are two small for you to see still exist. The tree that fell when no one was around to hear still made a sound, and that sound went on to affect the world, even if you don't know how. Yeah, that one really annoys me. Way overused. |
