But by the arguements here, it wouldnt make a sound until a human heard it. The basic premise behind the falling tree, is it doesnt exist if a human doesnt here it. A deer could hear it, but that doesnt count right? The sound wave could make a leaf on another tree fall, but since we didnt hear it, it didnt happen? Its arrogance to suggest an event doesnt happen because we werent there to witness it.[/quote:868cd]
exactly. so, back before humans existed, dinosaurs made no sounds? lol i think this proverb has always been ridiculous. i remember in highschool one of my teachers told it to my class and we were supposed to come up with some philosophical answer. i remember just laughing. freak:
