Philosophy

What is the difference between Western Philosophy and Chinese Philosophy, you may ask? Western philosophers like to discuss the question "if a tree falls over in the woods and nobody sees it, did it really happen?". Chinese philospohers discuss the question "if a panda falls out of a tree in the forest and nobody sees it, did it really happen".
I asked this question to one particularly gifted student of Chinese Philosophy who replied "if it happened, there would be pandemonium".
