it's nice to see some poetry
I'm glad to see someone submit some poetry of their own. It's great to see the art of flash take more mature forms every now and then. Although, I can't agree with some of the content of the poem, it was still fun to watch. I think sometimes you mix up the pharmaceutical companies and the soulless advertisers with the FDA, and although they may be related, the FDA can't be blamed for it all. As for Mary Jane, it's certainly one contention that many people have with the FDA, but not one that should distort one's opinion of the entire organization. I myself have qualms about the FDA, but I think in a lot of ways, it still does a lot of good. I go to places like China, where you always have to be careful about what you eat, and it makes me a little more happy that I live in a place with less corruption and more checks and balances. Anyway, about the pop sound at the beginning, yes I do have a suggestion. First of all, make sure you're importing as wav, that's the easiest thing to check. Now, if you're editing the sound with something simple like Windows Sound Recorder, then I'vefound the pop to be quite hard to get rid of, but if you download a free app like Audacity from places like downloads.com, you can zoom in on the sound wave, and delete the spikes that represent the pop. Then, you should have no problem at all.
