What is the purpose for a microphone shock mount?

When mics are attached to mic stands with say a standard clip, the vibration from the floor that the mic stand is on can/will vibrate up the stand, to the mic and into the mic's diaphragm causing unwanted noise when recording. 

The elastic on a shock mount separates the mic from the stand and therefore creates a separation between the two -- there is no direct connection or attachment between the mic stand and the mic itself. Which, theoretically, will eliminate noise caused by vibrations from the floor. For example, a shock mount can be especially useful for people who tap their feet when they sing.
