So, we agree, right? It's not scientific to claim you've heard the tree fall in the forest just because you see the tree fall and some sound reaches your ear, because of the gaps in the continuous flow of evidence.

I have heard that the DEFINITION of sound was that it produced a sensation in an EAR.

Therefore, with no EAR around to sense the air vibrations, there would be no 'sound'.
