Okay, that's what I thought you meant. It hasn't been a problem so far; I think
that may be part of why speakable items has to be turned off and on again
sometimes but nothing else seems to be working more slowly or poorly so I can
live with that. Since there's actually a command to quit speakable items which
actually does turn it off in System preferences, I can turn it off pretty
easily when I don't need it.
