Hello Geoff,

There is a speech engine called Cepstral (http://www.cepstral.com/) that may work for what you're trying to do. It comes bundled with the "Allison" voice. I know you mentioned that isn't really the direction you wanted to go, but it could be a viable option if no other solution presents itself.

Thanks!

Is there a 'dow' (day of week) setting that would allow Allison, in conjunction with the time, to say what Day of the week it is?

I've edited chrontab to have an hourly chime that spits out the local time.

Mondays are hard... I need help ;-)

Ultimately, I'd like to be able to hear;
Today is Monday, October 28. Good morning, the time is 11 o'clock, AM.

If there were a speech engine that could take text and convert it to speech, then I suppose a string with the variables would be generated, but that's not -really- the direction I wanted to do.

Ideas?
