[DECtalk] something i heard

Thank you guys so much for trying. We all can learn something from it. I think the biggest is jumping to conclusions too quickly and saying something before we are sure. I think we all did it. That was the biggest thing.
Unfortunately since we don't have Fonix in our favor, we're going to have to do something drastic to get something to work that we don't already have. We have a Fonix Sapi dectalk, what point is it trying to recreate that and sell it?
I'm not really sure what's left to do except try to recreate the old classic Dectalk. Had I been working on this myself, as in programming the thing, I'd have given up by now because I personally wouldn't want to continue after such a letdown.
I am interested to see what happens. Don't let a failure knock you into the it can't be done house.

  Never give up!  So this one flopped, nothing is ever perfect on the first try.  Dennis set a high bar with Dectalk.  A good release needs to add to his work and raise the bar even higher.  Never say never!
