Imagine the ramifications of: a arefully condstructed sample library of Reagans speech, culled from hi-Q recordings, turned into phonemes andsuch for some commercial synthesizer. Plus software, text->speech, no matter how kludged (eg. spcific to the Reagan textbase). Make it shareware/freeware. Make Reagan say *anything*. Repeat with current personalities (Clinton, etc) and construct a conversation, say on topical events. Repeat with video images. It wouldn't matter how, or even real-time. Construct a video with sound & motion. Blow vid/sound as evidence out of the water, once and for all (speed it up).
