Yes it does make a sound it just happens there is nobody there to hear it but the impact of the tree on the ground produces energy, some in the form of heat, others vibration on the ground and some more in an audible sound.

Apparently if you put a dead cat into a box, it isn't actually there until you open the box and look at it.

That was a real experiment attempted by some Victorian nitwits.

Schroedinger's cat, thought experiment from the 30s or 40s I think. If you put a cat in a box with poison gas, it's both alive *and* dead until you open the box to determine which it actually is.

Just hope the poison gas is strong enough or it'll be one pissed off kitty, otherwise!

Well you have no firm, knowledge if the cat is alive or dead however if when you open the box and rigor mortis prevents you taking it out you then know that the cat is and was at the time you were wondering no more.

the real question is.........if a man is in a woods, and there are no women around to hear him, is he still wrong?

A cop pulls over a car and asks to see the drivers license. He then says "Dr. Schroedinger, I noticed you were driving erratically. Do you mind if I search your car?" Dr. Schroedinger gives him permission. After searching, he comes back to the driver's window. "Dr. Schroedinger, are you aware that there's a dead cat in your trunk?" Dr. Schroedinger says, "Well, there is now."

Ah, Schrodinger's Cat......

Shrodinger was a physisict in the 40's who said....

If you put a cat into a box, with some poison, you cannot tell if the cat has eaten the poison or not. Therefore you cannot tell if the cat is alive or not. Therefore, it can be said to be both alive and dead at the same time.....The only way you can tell is to open the box and to find out.

It is used as an example of how particles can have different quantum states at the same time....and probably more besides.....

As to the tree, who cares, anyone fancy a spot of dogging?
