None at all. None that I can feel or see, anyway. Maybe an EMG would
pick up something, but I don't have one handy.
This paragraph was typed while I am whistling Mozart's "Voi che sapete" -
this should probably show that I'm not moving my tongue in speech-like
patterns while I type, as whistling requires fairly precise tongue
movements. My dormmates can testify to the fact that I'm whistling in tune
and in correct rhythm, and even with a little vibrato.
