I was gonna mention that one.  Also, besides the "hidden" track, there's
another hidden element in the middle of the CD.  During the long,
guitar-noise segment following the title song, the singer can be heard
singing some quiet little song - but only if you put your stereo into mono
mode.  Pretty clever, I thought.
