I was not at all offended by sevenstrokeroll's correction, but I did find his dismissive response to my observation to be somewhat uncalled for.
Passengers do have the capability to differentiate between normal and abnormal sounds. I've read elsewhere on this board of incidents where passenger observations helped to avert potential disaster. The eyes / ears of the crew can't be everywhere at all times, so shouldn't passengers report apparent anomalies?
