   EV>As long as Arthur and his friend Burt Itis doesn't affect my fingers,   
   EV>I'll be banging away at the keyboard.   
      
   EV>No Way! am I going to try Dragon Naturally Speaking if I can't type   
   EV>because I was visiting at a home many years ago where the fellow   
   EV>"Trained" that software and then used it to make a Email to send to me.   
      
   EV>It was real funny what got put into that message.   
      
   EV>The guy wasn't going to send it because it didn't look anything like   
   EV>what I heard him say in the microphone, but I told him to send it to me   
   EV>anyway after all of his troubles trying to make the message.   
      
   Back in the late 80's whan I was working i nhe engineering department of   
   the local VA facility the Anesteshology Research group were trying to   
   adapt speech recognition for logging madication administration.   
   It never worked out,   
   the probem is that ones speech had to be totaly consistant. Get a cold   
   and you had to re-train the program. Have a tremor in the voice, Forget   
   it.   
   Sure it works for simple game playing commanda but for real   
   transcription of dictation it is a different story.
