It's Called, "Proof is in the Puddin Slam Dunk" Jim Moore

continuation of email conversation with Jim Moore re: 

• Velum-- Proof of Aquatic Ape Hypothesis... this one's for Elainen, and Cory Monteith RIIP: Imagine, Lifting the Veil on L!! 

Jim: 

"Hearing subjects maintained a velopharyngeal seal during vocalization, whereas Deaf subjects had some degree of velar pharyngeal opening throughout vocalization."
pg. 51, "A speech programme for deaf learners to be used in the classroom", Zelda Isaacson, 2000, doctoral thesis

You've got it exactly backwards.

Me: 

Surely your jesting?!  C'mon try it -- lift your vellum as though submerged under water and then say "the proof is in the puddin", and la voi le  ;-)(-;   sounds exactly like a deaf person.  And  thanks for the further evidence :  obvious confirmation bias/ cover up (not that I needed more).  You really shouldn't believe anything... not even a doctoral thesis without doing the simple math for yourself.
