"If a tree falls in a forest with no one there to hear it....is there any
sound??"
Depends on how you define 'sound' - airwaves vibrating, or must there also
be a membrane they impact on, or must that also be connected to a brain to
resolve the signal? (more grins)
Or worse, the reductionists would say that (a) the tree and the forest
only exist if and when there is someone there (b) your tree , forest and
sound are only opinions anyway (sighs not grins) and if they exist are
different from mine so who is or is not hearing what?
Maybe all those people at Andersens and Enron only thought they were
shredding what they thought was documents? Maybe if they'd thought the
documents weren't records the documents (or records) wouldn't have existed
and they would't have needed to shred them?
And I won't even get into uncertainty or multiple dimensions because it's
Friday up here.
