sesame street...

The Toronto Star:
"Elmo et al. unleashed on Iraqi prisoners
First they used heavy metal to rattle Manuel Noriega. Now there are reports that U.S. forces have used the Sesame Street theme song - played over and over at excruciating volume - to disorient Iraqi prisoners prior to interrogation. The moral implications of this practice aside, what song or music would you use to irritate your enemies?"
I had to comment, what has it come to that you use innocent kids music to torment ppl? Oy. Amusing, yet bad at the same time. It's like singing that "This is the song that never ends" song that Lambchop sings in Lamchop's play along all day long just to annoy your co-workers.
My question is, kids music is made to be catchy, joyful and happie, but why does it trigger annoyance in others when sang over and over again? I thought it was suppose to be happie music!
