It's something that you become attuned to with time and practice (just like learning to play an instrument)

I play piccolo and have no problem whatsoever feeling the pitches at all - it's about learning HOW you feel them that is the "tricky" part which most hearing people don't "get" because they primary use their ears to listen to SOUNDS instead of using their BODY to interpret (listen to) vibrations

Agreed. I am from a very musical family. And it isn't just pitch you feel, it is timbre, as well. I feel different instruments and different voices in various parts of my body. For instance, my SO is an R&B and blues singer with a big old round voice. I can feel it reaching my chest area and then just surrounding me. My nephew, also and R&B and blues singer has a voice that I feel crawling up my arms. When the two of them hit a really tight harmony, I get cold chills all over my body. A trumpet will hit me in the chest area. A bass gets me in the solar plexis. I used to think that everyone had kinesthetic responses to musical sound, but I have since learned that it is either innate in some and taught in others.

You'd be surprised. You'll get more in tune with your feeling. When I sleep in an apartment I can feel who is upstairs, who is downstairs, and who is walking down the hallway without seeing them. While sleeping in my bed I can feel my neighbor across the hall, two doors down leaving for work.. The only reason I can identify who is who without seeing them is having the ability to feel across the sound wave spectrum.

Thankfully I now live in a house by myself.

Absolutely. That and the ability to detect minute rhythym changes in the foot steps.

You should know that things like people walking and doors shutting fall on the lower side of the frequency scale. Therefore they travel further..

Theoretically. If there is an obstacle, they don't.

Sound travels through wood at 17,600 Feet Per Second..

Unless its a steel building in which case it travels at 18,000 FPS

I was told about you, I won't say what or by whom, but lets just say PM really does mean Private Messaging..

Think. Ever hear of sound proofing?

Well, aren't you just special? But not nearly as sneaky as you think you are. I already know about the PM.

And keep in mind, if you can't say it in public, it is no doubt a lie.:P

Now, back on topic.

Nice to know that I have become so important that you feel the need to discuss me in private.

 

[Banjo]

Oy! The ol' woe is me act is getting old.

By the way, if one want to be taken seriously, at least say "you're" instead of "your" all of the times.

Grammar police is here.. watch out!

 

[jillio]

Not entirely true. You got to have the right equipment and to be able to feel and to analyze highs. I throughly enjoy music in cello, flute, harp and all that. I love Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata Mvt. 3 via harp.

"Your still missing all the highs" assumption is incorrect.

Very much incorrect.

Yes I have heard of sound proofing, but sound proofing requires that you stop the sound from traveling. I hardly think they implement sound proofing in hotels or apartments. If you've ever seen sound proofing, it isn't what you would call cheap or attractive. It involves heavy doors that no air can get under as well as specially designed carpet "cones" that act as a ceiling..

Since you're starting to preach about religion.... I am going to ask you one question about him knowing everything that im going to do even before I do it... Whats the point of having an hell if everything was planned out?

Since his deafness is the result of a fall at church, I'm wondering why he is working so hard to undo his God's deed.

Do you know the meaning of "obstacle"? It is something that stops the sound wave from traveling.

I've seen sound proofing in many forms. And it does not always require a heavy door or specially designed carpet. In fact, there are some extremely cheap ways to soundproof.

You can claim you know about the PM, but unless you can give me the name, I have no reason to believe you.

Unless it's not for the public to hear. Or if you traditionally lie in public.

I didn't discuss you in private. Someone PM'd me. And they said these things. There was no discussing to it.

 

[zebadee2010]

I actually happen to know the reason for my fall, and it was a perfectly good reason. It's personal and had nothing to do with any of you. I don't regret it or blame anyone for it. Glad to know you like to dig around.

None of which are attractive nor designed for a hotel, and i wasn't referring to carpet. I was referring to the ceiling which is covered in a carpet like substance. You now seem to be in an area way over your head.

It is amazing how sound can travel through anything dense. It's the softer, squishier things that prevent sound from traveling.

Uh, that is a discussion. In private. Thanks for the confirmation.

And, as I said, must be a lie, or there is no reason to hide.:P

That hole you are digging for yourself will soon be too deep for you to crawl out of.

Well, then, perhaps your faith in an almighty that controls all is only a faith of convenience.

And you do regret it. If you didn't you would not be fighting so hard against the consequences of that fall.

What does a hotel have to do with it. You made a statement about the distance a lower frequency wave travels, and I said theoretically. It does not travel that far when there is an obstacle that prevents it.

Are you having difficulty keeping up here?

I didn't realize this thread was about the physics of sound. I thought it was a CI thread.
Sweetie, I doubt that you can find an area where you can put me into anything over my head.

This is just poor taste! If "god" did not wish for us to receive the benefit of a medical device, then I would assume he would not have allowed mankind to come up with a technique and device to allow such things to exist for our use. You really are out to get this guy.
