Judy,
 
Alas, I have 64-bit Windows 7 and Adobe doesn't have the requisite flash
player for that yet.  What is this young man's name?  Maybe he's on YouTube.
 
Yes, I saw early Charlotte Church.  I was impressed with her at the time,
but my impression as that Jackie Evancho is better.
 
I hope our resident Bizarro is wrong about how Jackie Evancho achieved her
polished voice.

Eric,
 
No doubt you have heard of Jackie Evancho:

americas-got-talent/
 
How is it possible for a ten-year-old girl to have such a well-developed
operatic voice?  A friend who heard her said Jackie reminded her of
something from the exorcist.  Her voice is beautiful, but it is bizarre that
she should have it.
 
I didn't have that reaction.  I listened to her several times and she
brought tears to my eyes on each occasion.  She is a prodigy.  I just hope
her managers don't ruin her life.
 
 
Lawrence
