My dog ran around the house all crazy like once when I was playing King Crimson.

Seems proof enough to me 🙂

Scientists had perform the following experiment to our close relative: monkeys

They placed two buttons in front of them and train the monkeys to press the button. When one of the button is pressed, it plays a perfect harmony chord (a major). When the other button is pressed, it plays a chaotic chord, of which when played to human we know it sounds really bad.

Number of times each button is pressed is recorded. The monkeys shows no preference over one to another. This proves that their sense of music is different to human; if not inexistent.

But they get bored with that quickly too. They just don't seem to get what the big deal is - why do we stare at that glowing box for so long?

... and I bet our birds are pretty clueless about why we stare at their carpetry for half an hour every morning.

:thumbsup: That took a couple of seconds.

Taking more than a couple of seconds here......still not getting it. *looking up* Oh, there it is, way over my head. Don't think it's going to be coming down to where I can understand it either.


Best I can determine he's talking about cleaning up bird poop.

Edit: Nevermind, looks like I was wrong.
