In the words of Greg: Put the kettle on! LOL. This is the kind of guy Greg is. He answers this post, sees that I’m online, and sends me a facebook message saying that he’s up (4:30 a.m. his time!!!) and if I’m free we can chat. I of course jumped on it. Within 15 minutes he got me to (FINALLY!) get that low sympathetic buzz on the leadpipe that has been so elusive for me. It was a combination of experimenting with an exaggerated WAWAWA motion of the aperture corners in an out and of moving the tongue up and down YAYAYA. I had seen that video before but it didn’t click for me until Greg had a look at me. Now I can start the buzz with that motion and even keep it going when I gradually stop doing the WAWAWA and YAYAYA. It’s a very low tone which makes the inside of my lips tingle. A new and interesting sensation! OK, I’m going to go fiddle with that some more…

THANK YOU GREG!!! YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to see where this takes me…
