Still trying to get telecom/xtra to fix the broadband line. Having spent a _lot_ of time listening to "the team is still busy on previous calls" and piped music. (Still going as I type this...) My mind starts wandering... About "festival" speech synthesizer and irritating voice recognition robots... I think tonight, if I haven't got through by then.... I'm going to be sorely tempted have fun with a ruby script and the festival speech synthesizer. Any suggestions for humourous voice robot like things for it to say... Computer's are just so very very patient.
