As well they should have, Bruce. 
Congrats for going the extra mile to derail what was becoming another FXMastermind thread. I am very interested in reading your theory about sound. I realize that it might screw me up, but I’m willing to take the risk.
Since time began the term evolution has boggled the minds of man and just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, well;
Sorry to do it to you but the following is just a tiny bit of how it really is.
We as human along with other life species have evolved in conjunction with environment but one component that has slipped by us is food. The term “we are what we eat” is so true and allow me to explain it this way. When you are all tucked in tonight and its nice and quiet;
Hear and Sense Sound
Lightly scratch the top left side of your head.
The scratching you hear or what you sense is prominent at the top left side of your head.
Moving around the skull sensing this scratching you can, in your mind, hear and pinpoint the location.
A big difference in scratching the ear, now you are hearing not sensing.
Do the same at the tip of your nose, lips, tongue and behold, no sound and no sense.
Out of this simple experiment the possibilities are endless like why do some species have lips n noses big and small and some with no tongue at all.
Natures little safety devices allows the cow and horse to graze with out vibes of the screaming life of grass.
The alligator, snake, bird and fish to swallow and with man evolving to kill and cook bypassing life’s aura that would have long ago driven him, the dog without its long snout and the cow without the large lippy nose, completely nuts.
You don’t think the cows enjoy the screams as the soundtrack of their lives? What if, under their placid, bovine faces, they are sadists, chewing the grass again and again to wallow in the pain they are causing?
Makes ya think, don’t it?
Persons who can not feel while hearing or to not feel at all may need to check that:

I can hear and sense with no trouble.
Before this thread I thought that hearing was a form of sensing, but now my mind’s blown and I’m all screwed up. 
But why this thread? That’s the real mystery. Why pick this thread to enlighten us on the evolution of skin sensors and stereo location of nits biting our heads?
God works in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform, and we never know when a prophet will come unto us. Be glad it happened on our watch. Our grandchildren will gather at our knees to hear us tell of the day BruceVoigt appeared in our midst.
I’m still shocked to discover we’re no longer #1 on the food chain!

Re Black Wave
While an air or water cell is expanded its nuclei are of a size that does not interact with the sun’s radiation and little light is produced leaving a dark cloud (black).
Why is the sky dark at night?
Simply, particles called dark matter or energy of outer space do not interact with the radiation or aura (The word is Aurora, mate) of stars.
No, I explained it in Post 4.
As for all the bogus “explanations” proffered by so many in this thread, it’s dark because it’s nighttime. Any three-year-old could tell you that. We ignore at our peril the wisdom of the ancients and of the very young, whose minds are free of the pseudo-intellectual chains of modern culture. I see you are trying to throw off those chains yourself, but beware endangering your ba’s happiness in the afterlife. Not that it will be anything but shitty either way, you not being a god.
Er, you’re not a god, are you?
Er, yes and so are you;
There is more god in a blade of grass or a so called dead 2X4 than all religions of all time. About what’s up and down one must first know what gravity really is. With that you can then comprehend that earths nucleus is a sun but then you must know what a star or sun really is. Any questions?
Dear god. That’s the saddest thing I’ve seen all month.
No, it isn’t.
Just chipping in to say that I’ve been making a few models of the dustless galaxy, using concentric shells of stars and so on; even with very generous assumptions I can’t make the total apparent magnitude of the Milky Way greater than -10.5, which is quite a bit less than the full moon. I can only speculate that Michael Rich or one of his colleagues was making a rather crude back-of the envelope calculation. To equal the brightness of the Full Moon you would need to move all 400 billion stars in the galaxy to a shell only 5000 light years away.
Whoa. Now you’re just messing with my mind! Cool video, though it doesn’t do anything to explain how hearing something is not sensing it. No, don’t explain. My mind is blown enough, so leave me this mystery of God’s–er–MY creation.
Yes, [del]what is the average air speed velocity of a laden swallow?[/del] 
I mean, what is the time it takes for seismic waves to travel through around the Earth? I ask because that directly contradicts that the earth is a hollow sphere.
Think HOT and light as being nuclear particles orbiting in chaotic orbit directions
It takes reaction to turn stone to gas, then it takes reaction to turn gas to water and again reaction to turn water to gas, reaction then turns gas back into rock. (comet, asteroid, earth and yes also the sun as fire is at the nucleus of all these. When some one say’s your a ball of fire, well you really are!
As all cells have a nucleus, we are unable to get to the center of our planet but we can study a water cell. To do this first understand that the nucleus of any cell is made up of orbiting nuclei so small as to not interact with matter as we know it. You will find at the nucleus what will be to you as air pockets or bubbles and if studying the universe instead of this ice cube you would call these bubbles black holes. Now your really going to want to call these black holes oxygen and hydrogen but when you know the secret way of causing a reaction that has these many particles running into each other then you to can discover the fire in your ice cube.
