yeppers, appartently silence is on both versions.  someone (alex?)
suggested that the silence makes more sense if you put the entire disc
on repeat - the 10 minutes of silence offer a brief respot and then the
noise at the very end warms you up for the 1st track.  i dunno, haven't
tried this yet.

anyways, i personally didn't get into lp5 as much as i did chiastic.  i
suppose i felt that cs put me in a more specific time and place while
lp5 sounded really neat but didn't have any emotional effect on me.  a
couple of tracks (3rd and 7th) are indeed quite wonderful but as a whole
it just did congeal...  yet.
