When I was younger my dad used to like to tell me little brain teasers. One day he asked me, "I a tree falls in the forest with no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?" But I didn't get it. I just said how would I know? I can only hear it fall if I'm there and then there IS someone there to hear it! I didn't understand why he was asking me something that there was absolutely no way I could know the answer.
