The Setup

    Start track one of Radiohead's "Amnesiac" as soon as you see "A Jim Henson Production" at the begining of "The Dark Crystal." Do a straight play of the rest of the songs.


The Source

    Zach is the genious who came up with the idea of trying Radiohead's "Amnesiac" with "The Dark Crystal." Zach wrote to start track 2 "Pyramid" 12 seconds later, after the narrator finishes saying "Time" in "Another place and another time." Then start track 3 when you see the "snail rock" as Jen walks past. Follow with the rest of the tracks. I do not think his version matches and Zach does not think my version matches.

    I was just trying out a slightly different version of Zach's when I stumbled upon my version of the set up.

    Leighton tried this sync from the database, starting when the words 'a jim henson film' appear on screen. His remarks are as follows:

    tracks
    1-4 great
    5-7 not that good
    8-11 good

    Leighton tried a repeat music play starting where the last music play ends.

    2nd play:
    tracks
    1-4 good
    5-7 not that good
    8-11 great.

    Leighton recommends you stop the cd when the light goes thru the triangle in the chamber ceiling at the end. this is about 20 seconds into track 11.

    Sincerely,
    Karl Tune


The Evidence

    I have been to my High School reunion and noticed a strong connection between marijuana use and memory loss. It seems that those who were high as teens had trouble remembering much of the fun back them. They confessed to not being able to recall much when they were young. As a side note, the stoners also looked much older than everybody else. Did a hard life lead to marijuana use or vice versa?

    A high number of pot smokers I know also suffer from throat cancer. Could this be connected with the U.S.A. government trying to spray pot plants with the herbicide paraquat or does pot use itself cause cancer? Tobacco smoke has been known to cause lung cancer so it is not a big stretch for marijuana smoke to cause it it too. I think there has been a scientific connection between less filtration of smoke causing a greater chance of cancer. Why take chances like this?

    Also, smoking anything is believed to harm the sensitive fetus developing in the womb. Studies have shown that a mother smoking while pregnant will have a lower IQ baby. There are enough things to battle in life, why add this to your child's fate? It pains me to see pregnant women smoking.

    I know it is asking alot, but please do not smoke anything. For your own sake.
