Wow! Now there will be people paying big bucks to appear to be talking to themselves, and others paying even more money and undergoing surgery so that they can hear voices in their heads... what has technology done to us!?!

i have an idea, a small ear implant that allows you to give mental commands and accesses any thread on this forum and reads the content for you. You can then dictate responses.

And members could submit their own voice style to be different when heard

Oh, then for each race style, in addition to having the different speech text, we'll also have a voice file for each type of message. The sound will be played when you read the message from another race. So Klingons will speak in the Klingon language, we'll have the Borg saying "Resistance is futile" in the Borg voice, and so on.

Maybe if you get a fax, you'll see the image in your mind. Hey, maybe you can be surfing the web in your head, too. Perfect for those boring meetings! Or play SEIV in your head, nobody will ever know what you're doing.
