and there is nobody there to hear it, does it still make a sound?
This is a follow-up to someone else's question. And I'm kind of getting tired of hearing it and wonder if it's not a waste of my time to even do this, but I can't help myself. And, I don't even know if this is allowed but here I go. I was surprised to hear that the answer was -- if there is not a receiver, there is no sound. Can someone please explain that to me. I can understand how that is true in electronics but outside of that -- I just don't get it. My theory is -- sound is sound-- it's there whether we hear it or not. Just as images are there whether we see them or not and sensations are there whether we feel them or not. Unless someone can convince me otherwise -- I'm sticking to my theory.
Give it your best shot!
