Human Hearing:
Compared to the other species of Class Mammalia, Humans can’t hear Jack!!!
They can’t ’hear’ Lions and other big cats moving towards them in the grass. Can’t see or smell them either. When it comes to the senses, we are pathetic!!
If it weren’t for other mammals that CAN hear, see and smell, we probably wouldn’t be here today. When they alerted, at least we had the good sense to run when they ran.
Enter, ’Audiophiles.’ Now we can ’hear’ the difference between a tone at 12000 hertz, and one at 12001 hertz. Wow, must be that evolution thingy.
A Joke, sort of:
An "audiophile" is on an African Safari. During a break, he falls asleep in the grass while soaking up some sun. He is awaken by the sound "Mee-ow, Mee-ow." He thinks "kitty cat." He is an "audiophile," so he knows his sounds. So he raises up and SEES a full grown male Lion coming his way. Every few steps, the cat stops and goes, Mee-ow, Mee-ow.
Whatcha gon do? Believe your lying eyes, or your "audiophile trained ears?"
A music lover, or any other normal person will say. "holy s**t, followed by "footes don’t fail me now"
An "audiophile" will clap his hands and say very loudly, "Here Kitty, kitty, Here Kitty kitty.
That’s why there are so few of them today.
Cheers
