listen to very loud music until there's a ringing in your ears. then you wont notice the brake squeal.  ;D i use dia compe green pads on the rear and grey one's on the front and they both squeal like a pig, i like it like that. you could try and toe them in to see if that stops it.

GaryN:
I recently had a very similar issue with my Salt+ Geo brake with clear pads, the squealing was deafening. Toeing the pads helped although the brake is not totally silent, I am living with it for the moment. I do have some Kool Stop pads in the garage as a back-up plan.
