RE: Making a box to voice-synthesize close-captioned subtitles.

"That way, even blind people can watch TV!"

Blind people *can* 'watch' TV.  Remember that subtitles are for
people who can't hear what's already being broadcast loud and clear
through their TV speakers.  Why couldn't blind people hear that,
rather than the subtitles?

Oh, you were kidding?  Never mind.
