Hey baby, what's your Intention here? Do you want to Sweat and become a Part of Me? Or do you want the Gaping Lotus Experience and just watch me Jerk-Off? Can I give you an Ænima? I'll Stinkfist you right in your Third Eye. Don't Crawl Away from me because you're Disgustipated. Am I just Cold and Ugly? Don't hold this Disposition. I may just be a Hooker with a Penis, but it's Maynard's Dick and not mine. I'll let you feel Die Eier Von Satan. Let me Pushit right into this Schism. I'll split you Right in Two. During the Intermission, we can smoke The Pot and stop being Sober. Once we're good and Rosetta Stoned, we can continue with this Prison Sex.

- i think i figured out what Problem 8 is.

Maybe the song is recorded on an 8-track. Addition to the obvious 8-association Blair has hinted towards soon-to-be obsolete technology and "reel 2 real".

Edit: Nevermind. 8-track cartridges were out production at the time. Instead, I found this:

i think the biggest clue is that it is on the ultimate collectors item, also I think that the 7in could be referring to master recording tape. Wilma interview etc etc...

i think that problem 8 isnt actually 1 song you sort of have to think of each album as 1 song

now for problem 8 i think it is made up of undertow aenima and salival in a 34 song track list

because "Problem 8 (The Riemann Hypothesis)" is exactly 34 characters long (including spaces and brackets) and if you ad up the songs from those 3 albums it comes to 34

1 intolerance
2 prison sex
3 sober
4 bottom
5 crawl away
6 swamp song
7 undertow
8 4°
9 flood
10 disgustipated
11 track 69
12 stinkfist
13 eulogy
14 h.
15 useful idiot
16 forty six & 2
17 message to harry manback
18 hooker with a penis
19 intermission
20 jimmy
21 die eier von satan
22 pushit
23 cesaro summability
24 aenema
25 (-)ions
26 third eye
27 third eye (live)
28 part of me (live)
29 pushit (live)
30 message to harry manback II
31 merkaba (live)
32 you lied (live)
33 no quarter
34 L.A.M.C.

but the songs wouldnt be played in that order if you read my post on how tool spells out the album/band name then youll know what i mean

it can be found here : https://toolnavy.com/showthread.php?t=126706

so for the problem 8 you would spell out "Problem 8 (The Riemann Hypothesis)"
and you would probably put the songs that spell out the band name "TOOL" where the spaces are and the brackets would be one of the live songs or (-) ions

as for the 8 im not too sure it since theres no tool song in that list (or otherwise) that has the number 8 in it might be track 8 on one of the albums it could be opiATE it could be H. cause H is the 8th letter of the alphabet (though H. is probably the H in Hypothesis)

or when those songs are properly assembled it could actually spell out the word "EIGHT"

THE TOOL FAQ ( http://toolshed.down.net/faq/faq.html ) did say merkaba was the intro to sober

"This song is actually an extended intro to "Sober" which was played live on the 1997-98 tours. Then it got a name. You may recall from those shows seeing Maynard sit while the rest of the band gave birth to this screaming sound. "

and on the wikipedia page for Ænima ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ænima )

it says that jimmy is the sequel to prison sex

"During 1996 concerts, Maynard told audiences that the song "jimmy" is the sequel to "Prison Sex", and how it's about getting through the abuse"

which supports my 3 album track list idea and also tells you those songs go together on the track list

It's been a while...

Something I discovered...

If you take the catalogue numbers from Bethlehem Abortion Clinic and add them together;

12134-66649-4

12134+66649+4

= 78787

78787 is a prime number

Isn't the Riemann Hypothesis to do with Prime Numbers?
