[Asterisk-Users] Text to Speech - Someone needs to do this

[Matthew John Darnell]

Why hasn't someone found 50 people who sound alike, put them in sound
studios and record the 10,000 most commonly used words.  You would all
differnent forms of the 1,000 most words, i.e. leading, trailing, question
etc.

You can synthesize the other 0.05% when you run into them.  With hard drives
so big, processors so fast and EXT3 that can handle 30,000+ files in a
single directory that seems like the way to do it.

You could sell it for BIG bucks.
