eoliver is an unknown quantity at this point
I own three of the tastee books, and while they are fairly entertaining, they basically just say the harder you blow, the less pressure you have to use. That's pretty much all they say. The only other thing is they relate playing notes to blowing out candles. High C is like blowing a candle at 5 feet, while DHC is like blowing out a candle at twenty feet, or something like that. Funny reading, though. If you want more info, I can pass it along. If you like the Christmas thing, they do have a couple of CDs of the same thing that are pretty funny, too.
