Your speaker should [...] not be suffering for a cold, or cough, or a
hangover. If something goes wrong [...] it is important that the speaker has
as similar a voice as with the original recording, waiting for another cold
to come along is not reasonable, (though some may argue that the same
hangover can easily be induced).
