Sarah said in an earlier message that she is part of a tiny minority who prefers synthetic speech to human narration.
While that club is no doubt small and exclusive, I hope and trust there's room for me. Even though I'm doing these NLS conversions, I prefer a plain-text book like a Web braille title over the human narration any day. The choice of the DoubleTalk chip was an excellent choice as far as I'm concerned.
I suspect, Sarah, that there are more of us out there than we might realize--more who enjoy synthetic speech over human narration, that is. I'm solidly in that group.
