Giving up on manuscripts is against the rules. ;~)<BR/><BR/>Although I haven't ever heard Tuvan throat singing, I have actually heard of the Tuvan people -- I read (right here in the middle of flyover country!) a fascinating article about them, Tuvan life and culture and history, in National Geographic a few years ago.Lyle Daggetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10731915540520704368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9089616.post-1160367074288340812006-10-09T00:11:00.000-04:002006-10-09T00:11:00.000-04:00Thanks, all.
