I would like to also see use of varying sounds other than r - for instance, I (and I think PC as well, though I amn't sure) use /T/ instead of /h/ for {'}; I would like to have a Lojban TTS voice with that one. I will record diphones if people want, but it would have to wait till spring break. This would satisfy the 'various dialects...ages' bit. Send me the diphone list if you want me to.
