Okay, I always thought this was a bunch of bull, but I thought I'd check out
some of the stories about synchronization between that album and the movie
"The Wizard of Oz." The link below lists several places where the album and
the movie supposedly 'sync up.'

Okay, darnit! NOW I'm going to have to watch/listen to the thing this
weekend to see if it really does match up as well as this site says. You
know, even if Pink Floyd didn't do this on purpose, it's still kind of
interesting (actually, it's even MORE interesting if they didn't do it on
purpose). 

I'm pretty sure this is going to be one of those moments where the
spouse/significant other just looks at you and says "Your listening to a CD
and watching a movie at the same time because...?????"

P.S. Don't forget to start the CD on the MGM lion's third roar. ;)
