Can people detect presence of other people through changing echo patterns?
Ever feel like someone is behind you, and you look and there is. Do we subconsciencelly hear echos? A sort of ambient or very low backround noise? Can like a radar ping back to a whale we detect these changes. For this to be true, the echo must be constant. When the echo is changed by a mass entering the room, it gets picked up and becomes conscience to us. This is maybe what causes us to "look over our shoulders" or "get the feeling someone is behind us". Could this be because of mere fact analsis and coincidence: "if the ally is dark and people get mugged there often, maybe i should look behind me right now"? Is this linked to scientists discovery of noise they say is left over from the big bang?
