    Nah, not that simple. Matter forms barriers. So if all barriers are gone, you have to get rid of all matter all together.
    But how many people would have understood it if the voice had said "All the AT fields are now gone"? Not many. Not you, at least .

        All syllogisms have three parts.
        Therefore this is not a syllogism.

          what if the booming voice said:

          "All your base are belong to us. You have no chance to survive, make your time"

              He didnt ask what would happen if all barriers were gone...
              HE asked what if a voice said so that everyone could hear... Would that change anything?

                I was standing around minding my own business when a loud booming voice said "The 17:48 to Sevenoaks will be departing from platform 6". Everyone around me rushed off. It was all quite surreal. Has anyone else experienced similar booming voices that command the masses in such a manner?

                      For the reason Urban Ranger cited, I think that there is no way people could dismiss the reality of what they heard if people suddenly stop being material.

                      The question remains, without any material body, would we still be able to ask ourselves questions like what just happened? Would we have any awareness at all?
