[ an excellent article on Kibo deleted (;-)) ]

Didn't you forget one?  

Kibo is the sound of one hand clapping.

Or am I mistaken?

Interesting anecdote:  About 15 years ago, I saw a National Theater of the 
Deaf production which included the following joke (done in sign language).
The student asks the master (who is deaf), "Master, what is the sound
of one hand clapping?"  The master claps two hands, then claps one hand,
and then says, "They're the same."  "Next question?"
