I remember back when that System Access To Go's speech would say fathoms where FM should've been in radio listings. The ones I really found annoying were back in school when they used Kurzweil 3000 to try to turn scanned books in to audio, hearing web addresses completely pronounced with all abbreviations expanded got annoying after awhile, and mangled them often enough.

Subject: Cooking with terabytes


Good old Alex has discovered a new cooking term. Did you know that when you're making short ribs in the slow cooker, you need to add one and a half terabytes of balsamic vinegar? When, when, will the folks who make the speech synthesizers stop trying to guess what abbreviations mean and leave it up to us, the human readers with the smarts, to figure it out for ourselves?
