Interesting, Roger.  Thanks for pointing this out.  Do you put your word
"page" in brackets or something, or just type in the word page before the
page number?

Okay, here is an extra and keep in mind that this is an extra and I am not
actually requesting that anyone do this. When I am reading a book with a
synthetic voice I notice that there are occasional numbers sprinkled
throughout the text. There may be only a few in the case of a novel when a
character asks the price of an item for sale or mentions how many miles it
is to the next town or there may be a lot in the case of a cookbook or most
especially in the case of a math textbook. In all cases, though, it is not
necessarily always clear when a page number is being read. To make this
clear the validator who wants to do something extra could add the word page
before each page number and then a phrase at the end of a page like, "how
many miles is it to the next town?" page 82 "About four," he answered, can
be clear.
