REG,
IN FACT, LESS AIR IS NEEDED FOR A SUNG PHRASE THAN IS NEEDED FOR A
SPOKEN PHRASE OF SIMILAR LENGTH (TIME WISE). I AM TALKING ABOUT AN
EXPERIMENT WHERE ONE EXHAUSTS ONE'S AIR SUPPLY TO SEE IF THE LARYNX RISES AT
THE END OF THE BREATH. IT DOESN'T, THUS PROVING AGAINST THE NOTION THAT IT
IS THE LUNG FULL OF AIR THAT KEEPS THE LARYNX LOW.
