uh oh...

i had just wheeled my tractor out of the garage and was sitting on it when i turned on my dj. i put it up to about volume 21 and then something odd happened. the screen (not the backlight) faded to black, then unfaded so it was normal. the whole screen went black with pixels, then unfaded and showed the normal screen. it did it a few more times and i was kidna freaking out, but it remained fully functional. all the buttons worked and my music played, and it didnt do it for a while, then it did it again. i did a disc scan this morning but i havent used it since i turned it off yesterday. any clues?

That does not sound particularly good, if you know what I mean. Keep a careful eye on it and backup the music ASAP.

LMNO, thats why they offer physics class, it happened because the polarized sunglasses's lenses have super small lines in them that filter light. If any of you get the chance get a couple of old polarized sunglass lenses and place one on top of the other . Rotate the top lense and you will see the lenses get harder to look through when the diffraction lines are perpendicular.
