when i was little, i used to believe that the presenters on tv could actually hear you. whenever they would ask a question to the audience, i used to reply by talking into the grills at the back of the tv (where the heat is relesed.) i also thought that the canned laughter was your que to laugh and would force myself to laugh whenever it came on!
