    Binary file format causes hearing loss

    MP3 users 'risking hearing loss'

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6982184.stm

    Turns out they're talking about MP3 players. Makes more sense. Wasn't really sure you could just use a file format yourself, anyway.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    THAT IS ADMIN ABUSE

    I'M REPORTING YOU TO THE RSPCT

    (royal society for the protection of cruelty to tiggerai's)

    Oh, and I know (vaguely) where you live (but that will probably involve another big hill....)

    Why do I have visions of Tiggerai heading up that hill on a 50cc moped now?
