The Ville is pleased to announce a new feature for our web site.
This feature is based on the voice system of TFC and will allow users to access information via voice recognition technology
To use the new system:
 Bring up the web site as usual
 At the home page click the login for the forums
 Enter your name and password as usual
 To view a forum just say the name of that forum
 Please understand that this technology is based on the voice system of TFC. You will need to speak in a loud, crisp voice or the system may not react. If the system does not react to your initial command, simply repeat the command, but in a louder voice until the system responds.

We at the Ville hope you enjoy the benefits of this new system. Please remember that this is a trial and your feedback will determine whether we continue with this test.

So, you're saying we should talk to our computers so that they can understand us? Or better yet, scream so that everyone in the next county can hear us.

I'm sorry Bada.

I have my ear as close to the computer speakers as I can get, but I still can't quite make out what you said. Could you repeat that?

Well, you should have seen me training my computer to recognize my voice. You know, media player works on voice command. It was funny for others to see. I read an excerpt from Edgar A. Poe to train it. They thought it was very odd that I would be reading my computer a story.

Yeah, and I invited you to dinner... did you come..??!! NO!

That might have something to do with the fact that I didin't invite you until after you were gone.
