If a tree falls in a forest, but nobody's around to hear it, does it even make a sound?  I would have to answer no. Jeff

If I'm catching your thinly veiled ( or full frontal) reference, then I would say a dull thud.  Dan

What about a weak branch? Weathered and decayed to the point where it carries no weight at all?
Hit's the ground like the dust that it is.

Whether there is someone to hear it or not, It still makes a sound. Difficult to break the laws of Physics. What's next, gravity.  Just because no one is there to feel it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Maybe I'm in an alternate universe and haven't realized it yet? Oh well, life goes on!

What's that whole quantum physics theory about things only being there when you look at them?
My brain has limited capacity at the moment..
