This is my yearly call for interesting examples of human speech.
The examples should be of interest to those doing speech
synthesis or recognition.  I collect the examples so that a naive
public isn't so easily fooled by tricksters.  For instance the following
sound very similar:
	How to recognize speech.
	How to wreck a nice beach.
I would especially like examples of speech in foreign languages.
Please send me mail.  Do not post.  The contents are stored for
anonymous FTP on aurora in pub.  I check for duplicates.   Please
feel free to forward this note to the foreign language group of your
choice.
