Good one R.L.

Especially the choice of screams. Ummagumma has some strange sounds, no? "Several Species of small furry animals..." especially good for weirdness. The whole album was once refered to by a friend as "Haunted House Music". Was actually listening to a couple o' tracks the other day.

A long time ago, simple DOS days, we used a simple database for mineral and fossil collections at a college I worked for. I began to enjoy changing the colors for background and text to disturbing color schemes. Really bugged my co-worker every morning to see a different look to the screen. While trying out different combos, I accidently changed the background to black and the text to black.....oh (*@*&%*( !

It was just luck that I'd been doing this alot, so I knew the sequence of key strokes (no mouse here, mind you) to get back to menu and change the text to white.

The experience put a stop to my horsing around with the computer for a few weeks.
