john, yea, the music.., i did have a fade out of course.., ease in and out applies just as much to sound design as it doed to animation.., but i pulled the song over a bit on the time line and forgot to redo the fade.., to my regret.., many people have pMed me about that music.., mentioning they love it but.., the abrupt ending.., that piece was certainly NOT done for an abrupt ending.
