  It cracks me up when this happens, as one of my jobs is to write software to
  prevent these sort of mixups from occurring
  (I am an engineer in a CD factory).  There is usually a Production Control
  Number on the inner hub of a disc, which is supposed to be
  unique for a given recording.  It might be interesting to compare these
  numbers between correct and incorrect discs.

  I have often thought how easy it would be to insert cool Flicknife-style
  messages on the inner hubs of discs, but it would likely get me in
  trouble!

  My favorite inner-hub message on vinyl is from a copy of Lubricated Goat's
  _Paddock of Love_ (on the Australian Black Eye label).
   It reads:
       "This is a REAL satanic message: the reader of this shall perish!"

  Cheers,
       Chris
