BUT:  if the sleeve proclaims that the 12" version that happens to be
followed by the laugh is _not_ the album version of the song, then we
have proof that the laugh does _not_ belong to Love and Anger and that they
just happened to throw it on the 12".  I liked somebody's idea that it was
a nice thing to throw between two tracks.

And it _does_ belong with "The Fog."  I don't care what _anybody_
says.
