So, when I was in Texas on a contract, the only 2 week
rental they had available was a Ford Fiesta with all
the voice recognition paraphernalia...

Sync... I'm not a big fan.

The problem was, since I was not familiar with the territory,
was that everytime I would say "Show gas prices" it would
show "whorehouses"...

I don't even know if I could get by with charging that off
as an expense in this auditing environment, so I called my
team leader back in Denver...

He said that we'd already rented plenty of storehouses in
the area and he would eMail me a list of them...

I responded "welcome to the digital age" and hung up.

I just got a bottle of digitalis via FedEx...

HTH.

On my droid phone, it has voice recognition.
I tried it out using one I knew it would have fits with.
An area in cincinnati is known as "colerain". Google returned hits like
'gold brain'.
With the english language having so many oddities, it's a wonder that voice
recognition even works.

Like with the simple word, read.
One voice reader thing I once had would pronounce "read" as "re-add'.
Or how would these things respond to something like 'Wooster, Mass'.
How about, 'Show map reading ohio'.
pronounced as "redding".

A programmer could easily go insane trying to figure it all out.

We're enjoying Climate Disturbance here. Highs in the mid to upper 80's.
I'll put what I have to do on hold today and go for a nice soothing ride
in the country on my bike.
