Once prepared, you will need to apply the auditory Awakening Signature in
order to encourage state permanence. Note the Awakening Signature below:

Make absolutely certain that you have performed the preparation steps
properly or else the Awakening Signature will not apply the proper state
permanence in the test subject. Also be absolutely certain that the
Awakening Signature is played exactly as written above. At least 3 years
of musical training [i]and[/i] music technology experience is required to
initialize the Audio Reaction sequence. Seriously, don't get this tune
wrong or else something bad will probably happen. Probably. [sub]We haven't
tested doing it wrong before, but we don't want to mess with nature, OK? Well, I mean,
not that much... Alright?[/sub]

It is of utmost importance that you keep a safe distance, as the new
sentience will likely be confused. If you fear that your test subject is
acting unusually violent, then it may be necessary to perform the Reversal
Reaction (see page 994) in order to reverse your experiment's effects. The
Reversal Reaction is known to not be 100% effective, but it is always best
to try to reverse your failure before you destroy thousands of dollars in
resources. The way [i]Kevin[/i] did. Geez, [i]Kevin[/i]. For notes about Kevin's
infamous billion-dollar screw-up, see Appendix G on page 2134.
