http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound  Thoughts can't change how physics works. (as far as I know, hahaha) Fun to think about though. :)

True thoughts cant change physics however we know that sound can leave a physical effect. Lay a speaker on its side, place some plastic wrap over the speaker and then place some kind of liquid on top. Crank the speaker up and watch how the sound particles effect the speaker itself as well as the liquid(and the plastic). That is proof that it does something physical. Obviously the technology doesn't exist yet. However, whats to say that our knowledge on sound is maxed out and that there is no way to create an amplification device that makes the sound stronger than an object and or rearrange the matter in an object to say maybe make it lighter? Id like to think we don't fully understand all forms of sound in the universe and physics says nothing about this not being possible as far as I can find. Most use to think Einstein was nuts when he proposed relative theory however through his math and ultimately seeing light being bent by the gravitation of the earth we now know he was right and his preposterous idea wasn't so crazy but it was true. Lets put our imaginations together and say, Yes! lets make this happen.
