Actually, Mike, it doesn't make a sound. The technical definition of sound is "a vibration in a solid or a fluid"; i.e., while the waves that cause a sound can propagate through air they aren't a sound until they hit something solid, i.e. your eardrum. (This assumes that your tree fell in the middle of nothing.) <g>
