I am not sure you got the point of my post. The poster I was responding too
was getting rather personal with Lloyd while also trying to attempt to
describe a production known as MOUTH VOICE. Now I don't agree with
everything Lloyd writes, but I do respect his integrity. Now if the poster
is going to attempt to meet on Lloyd's turf and try to describe what is going
on physiologically in these different prodctions he better get it right;
which he did not. My little observation about a hole in his palate at the
end which would allow air in the skull, was an attempt to allude to something
else.
