Greeetings,
 
          This may sound elementary but, if sound waves are compressed and 
rarefacted molecules of air, then how is it that soundwaves are not wind, or air 
blowing...why can't you feel sound waves moving past your ear? ...(or can you 
feel them if the sound is loud enough?) This may sound crazy but, shouldn't a 
high note such as C88 make you feel colder  because its 4160cps of comp and 
raref's going past your body as compared with A0 at 27cps? Why arent sound 
waves enough to move air?
 
This question has plagued me for a long long time.
 
Thanks,
Julia
