How far ahead in the future do you think one can make such a prediction with certainty? (assume you have a power enough computer and some means to take snapshots of one's current environment) Because time is in essence, merely the vibration of atoms, yes with an infinitely powerful computer and an equally impressive method of collecting variables one could predict the path of every atom ad Infintum. |

Quoting: Aristide Torchia We must first agree an definitions. If you agree with me that sound is defined by vibrations in a certain bandwidth then yes, there was a sound. If you define "sound" as the brains interpretation of vibrations translated into thought then no. However, in your pedantic, exercise you fail to include other creatures which certainly would hear the tree fall. But, alas in the world of people who pose this silly question, they forget to remove insect, mammal, reptilian and bird life which in my world would remove the existance of the forest from the realm if possibility rendering the tree fall impossible. Well you can think, pretty good too, I'll give you that. |

I said NO LIVING THING IMBECILE! Last Edited by Aristide Torchia on 02/21/2013 03:08 PM Torchia was born in 1620. He was apprenticed in Leyden under the Elzevir family. After returning to Venice he published small works on philosophical and esoteric themes. In 1666, Torchia published De Umbrarum Regni Novem Portis (The Nine Doors to the Kingdom of Shadows), which was in turn based on the Delomelanicon, or Invocation of Darkness, a work supposedly written by Lucifer and that would allow the reader to summon devils. The Inquisition condemned Torchia for magic and witchcraft and burned him at the stake in 1667. |
