And the minute I realize I'm hearing it, *poof!* it vanishes, and the silence that crashes into the void like wave filling a hole in the sand on a beach is deafening.<BR/><BR/>I think this is the audio equivalent of seeing ghosts. It's not there, but it sure as shit seems like it is. I don't think it's supernatural, though. I think it's some kind of sensory projection created by the brain.
