	Amazon.com: Figure 8: Music: Elliott Smith (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The beauty of Figure 8 is that it encompasses Smith's musical virtues, from the stark and wispy tunes of his lo-fi beginnings on Roman Candle to the orchestrated, Beatlesesque pomp and circumstance of later work to the intimate and sometimes painful nature of his live shows.
		Figure 8's opener, "Son of Sam," is as good as anything Smith has ever crafted, its soaring melody buoyed with lush instrumentation and a tin-pan-alley piano romp.
		And Figure 8 is absolutely a worthy continuation of the path he was on.

		Because we are introducing this fish into a brackish environment, it would have been better to first keep the fish in a quarantine tank and increase the salt levels (or specific gravity) of the water by 0.001 per month.
		However, because this figure eight was nearly mature, ready to live its life in brackish conditions, and because the specific gravity of our tank is a mere 1.003, we decided to do a long introduction directly into the target tank.

		The rope path has some sudden bends so the eight tends to "grab" under some gritty rope conditions.

		If the above Inline Figure Eight is pulled from the left, it will invert; then if both strands of the rope is pulled, the knot can come undone.
