No. You all are.  We all knew what I meant that the sound got louder and you 
all got silly about the word I used.  This is the silliest bickering I have 
ever been a part of.

This the silly part.  I DO understand, and you did to. I do not continue to 
refuse to understand. You all are making a mountain out of a molehill. 
That's why I keep responding. I misused a word that most of the world 
understands the way I did: when you amplify a sound, it typically gets 
louder, and you all got completely silly about it and took off on this 
tangent.

I was trying to convey something AS I UNDERSTOOD IT AT THE TIME, ok?  I 
wasn't trying to mislead anyone about anything.  I meant that the sound got 
louder.
