The method, it seems, is a highly refined form of burping. Patients are taught to force air into the stomach, then push it through the throat in the form of a .belch, while forming the words with their mouths. Al highly intelligible form of speech, it is said, may thus be achieved. Such a mode of speech, at least in Canada, is sijre to have certain social drawbacks. For while a series of well-modulated burps may be conversationally appropriate when discussing price control at a sdda fountain, it is apt to be looked upon as singularly inappropriate and even unparliamentary by Mir.
