Satchel: Rob, do we have free will? Rob: Oof, who knows? I mean, what is the sound of one hand clapping? Bucky: Pfff. Hey, nerd one: no. Nerd two: Rob: It's an unanswerable question. Like- Bucky: Like when you ask a girl for her phone number? Rob: ...like if a tree falls in the woods. Does it make a sound? Bucky: Irrelevant. It still squishes the chipmunk. Rob: You're missing the larger thing here... Bucky: Yeah, I think the chipmunk got that. Arrg! I'm being crushed by an unknowable crab apple! I'm dying! But at least I'm existentially satisfied! Satchel: Ha ha! I finally get philosophy!
Place a microphone and a recorder in the forest and see what it picks up. Besides, the same could be said for any sound,any where. ;=)
A much better question would be: How do I know that the color I see as red is the same color that you call red? Maybe what you’re seeing would be blue to me.
