Has anyone ever written a program that will convert text into speech ?

I am thinking of writing something that will play digitized parts of
speech (i.e. the ~40 phonemes used in English), and follow the rules of
English so that the words sound genuine.

I have the program that will use the digitized data - 
I am really looking for someone who has figured out all the rules, with
uncommon/ambiguous/exceptional words etc.

Thanks in advance
