Espeak was the first I tried and it had essentially the same voice
problem, someone mentioned Orca and I went off on another tangent. it
too is unintelligible on my system. I should try Espeak again but I
suspect Orca is a variation of the same program, the items offered for
configuration are similar if not the same it appears ...

more to think about, thanks,      Bob

I once used text to speech alerts for  things that needed immediate 
attention (server room overtemp, file server or satellite receiver 
gone offline).   It was cheaper than a pager and no paperwork was 
required.  At the time, festival had better voices than espeak (and 
festival currently has a Fedora package).

[Note for anyone thinking about getting involved with earth observation
satellites -- avoid sensors that don't require daylight and you will get
to keep more normal working hours.]
