Like many people at my skill level, I know I need to solfege every day if I am ever going to acquire any facility, I really do know that -- but I somehow don't do it.
And like many people at my income level I have abysmally slow dial-up.
And like many people at my intellectual level it take me forever to see the obvious.
Yes, if I place my liber and a pair of spectacles from Dollar Bill's that are the correct magnification for that print, (NOT the degree I need for the monitor screen,) the seemingly interminable wait for some plages to load is now filled delightfully and usefully.
As I said, doh!
(Strange, is it not, that the set which comprises the musical tasks on which I need to work to fulfill the obligations placed on me by my employers so that I can continue to eat, and play the mortgage, and that sort of thing, has hardly any intersection with the set which comprises the musical tasks on which I need to work to fulfill the obligations placed on me by my Church and my own understanding of the liturgy, the Source and Summit of our faith....)

For me, solfege is like flossing. A very worthy activity that I will easily and happily forget.
The hygenist at the dentist told me to commit to flossing one day a week for a month, then add a second, etc. It was accessible.
Maybe I should try that with solfege.
