Sorry about the eyes thing ... that was a typo... I meant to say you listen
with very prejudiced ears which I'm sure you knew... I'll point out typos in
your next post...lol

I'm glad your rehab went well, but vanderbilt is not necessarily a good place
to rely on statistics being that it is located near a major country western
center (Nashville, if I'm not mistaken) the population will skew the results.
Their probably isn't a lot of opera going on down there unless it has gran'
ol' in front of it.

Refresh my memory, if classical singers have such low instances of vocal
problems, why did you need vocal rehab?

In Chicago, there is a broad spectrum of vocal music going on. The leading
group of singer's with irreversible lesions are amateur classical singers,
but not by much. The incidences are almost (but not quite) spread out over
all genres. While doing observation at the Loyola Voice Clinic (under Dr.
Robert Bastian) the type of singers that came in were of all types, but
classical was the most prominent.
