Probably the same as the noise a tree makes when it falls over when there's no-one there to hear it?

I seem to recall this was covered in a "Sipmsons" episode.

According to DEATH in Terry Pratchett's 'Soul Music' it is 'cla' as the other hand makes the 'p' sound.

in my view it doesnt make any noise-- because there is no such thing as a 1 handed clap... a clap implies both hands coming together, so with one hand you would just bll it hit something.

whe....whe....whe...whe

Try claping one hand only near to your ear and this is the sound it makes! What you hear is the sound of the hand moving through the air not the sound of two hands coming together. The same sound is present when two hands are clapped its just that you do not focus on that sound as it is less significant to the sound of the hands contacting.....in relation to MA philosophy study the whole technique, the preparation & build up to the delivery and not just the end result, this way you will get the build up & delivery right so that the end result will follow.

And if the believe that crock of horse sh1t you too could be Mr.Myagi:-D

I prefer to think of that one as "is the cat dead or alive before you open the box".

If a man says something and there isn't a woman around to hear him is he still wrong?

Heard this one before?

THE LOST CHAPTER OF GENESIS

Adam was hanging around the Garden of Eden feeling very lonely.
So, God asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to.
God said that he would make Adam a companion and that it would be a woman.
He said, "This pretty lady will gather food for you, she will cook for you, and when you discover clothing, she will wash it for you.
She will always agree with every decision you make and she will not nag you, she will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement.
She will praise you! She will bear your children and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them.
"She will NEVER have a headache and will freely indulge your carnal desires whenever you ask."
Adam asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?"
God replied, "An arm and a leg."
Then Adam asked, "What can I get for a rib?"

Of course, the rest is history......
