A friend of mine showed me a HyperCard stack where someone sampled Madonna's "Like a Prayer" song (the first few words of it) and found it to contain satanical messages when played backward. I have tried looking thru various FTP sites, with no luck; haven't had much luck on BBS's either. Could someone either point me to where the stack is on FTP, or mail me a BinHexed copy? I will, in turn, be glad to mail anyone who is interestd in this, a copy of it, once I recieve it. If no one has the stack, can someone point me to the Email address of the author of it ? I know he has one, because the stack said so... Reply to the addresses below...

[Oh, no, not again... Backward masking is one of those things that comes up so often and is so consistently baseless, that I strongly advise you to be sceptical without very clear proof. Does anybody know about this particular claim? --clh]

One chap says, "I think CD's are the work of the Devil". The other replies, "Why?" The first responds, "Because I can't figure out a way to play them backwards!" (Well, I guess someone has figured out a way! ;-) Tom Blake SUNY-Binghamton
