Felt the ground move a little... nothing around us here for miles...

 

So how would anyone else be around to feel it move? lol

 

If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one there, does it make a noise?

 

Does a microphone count as someone being there to hear it if the mic records and no one is listening at that point in time but listens to the recording later?

 

so is it...
1: Things make noises and we hear them

2: we just hear things?

 

Yes but if no one is around will it still make a noise. The point is there is no answer since it cannot be proven either way. Damn Chinese and their proverbs.

Another one is in the Simpsons and is 'what is the sound of one hand clapping?'

The point is that you concentrate on the idea and your brain builds the conflict and pushes all other thoughts out causing a feeling of calm. I think lol

 

If a man says something in a forest, and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

 

Always. Fool.
