Well, it's not an illustration of a tympanostomy tube being used in a way that's consistent with my understanding of the situation...

Not to me. For example you don't suck fluid up through a drinking straw. You lower the pressure at the top of the straw so that the...

Not to me. The fan pushes air at the front but it doesn't suck air from the back. It creates a lower pressure on the back side and thus...

Is this a rehash of your original question? Look again at the answer I gave you. The issue you are having trouble wrapping your head...
