ML, note that last line where Pepin had highlighted guttural and visceral. Actually it support what you and I and Webster
have said about the word guttural.
Def:1 : articulated in the throat *guttural sounds*
2 : VELAR
3 : being or marked by utterance that is strange, unpleasant, or disagreeable
Note the first 4 words in the sentence "When Peter Doherty howls". Howl, a noise made in the throat Actually if the writer had used growls it would be a better fit with guttural. I feel fortunate in never having heard Peter Dohetery. This and the first link offered by Pepin which opens with a page offfering a link to a triple x site is why I made reference yesterday in one post about being surprised at the material Mark was offering to support his argument. As I said I had loked at some of the Google offerings. In deed the writer does use both guttural and visceral to describe Dohetry howls. But they are used as two separate qualities.
Marks third link is clean. It is a review of an automobile, a Supercharged Tiburon (I think that is the Hundi coup) the copy reads "It is visceral; it is guttural. The speed comes easy. The ponies are mean, and want to run." Again visceral and guttural are two qualities not one. I am reminded that this is probably where I learned the meaning of Guttural. I think it was "Thush Mufflers" that liked to talk about the guttural (deep throaty) sound produced by their mufflers and they offered a roaring lion in some of their adds. He looked as if they may have gortten him from MGM.
Would mark want to suggest that the reviewer is here talking about ponies or is he talking about horsepower which has nothing to do with actual horses in todays market.
