I recently made a live recording of Berio's 'A-Ronne', in this case
performed by six singers. It has a *very* wide dynamic range (which 
has to be reduced for e.g. broadcasting, as was the case) and takes
about 26 minutes. 0.01% of 26 minutes is around 1.5 seconds, and I
can assure you that a female voice at +9dB and being clipped for 
0.5 seconds three times is quite a nasty effect.

that wasn't a joke, precisely _because_ of the context, and even
if it was a joke it doesn't do you much credit.
