  13. Speech to text systems certainly exist.  But they have trouble distinguishing
  14. one word's end from another's beginning and, therefore, prefer you to pause
  15. between words.  Makes you talk in a manner unto which you're probably not accustomed.  So, if you're
  16. willing to "blurt" your thoughts out that way, you'll be OK.  Else, you may
  17. have to wait.
