Voice-Recognition

I am dictating this using Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I'm lying on the computer room floor. It works really well in theory. Actually, it is picking up everything I say. I just don't have much to say. I suppose if I had something to say, it would be much better. I guess that is the trick to good voice recognition, just having something good to say. I am making no sense at all, but this program understands everything I say. This post can only make sense if you were sitting here watching me.

Actually, now I wonder about the disjunct between my mind and my tongue. I wonder if I can think at all out loud. do I make sense to anybody?

This is really good technology.

I wish I had something to say. If I did have something to say, I am sure this program could pick it up. This is just really weird.

While I like it, it is going to take some getting used to. I really just want my arms to stop hurting.

Makes sense to me, but that may not be saying much. ;-)

I wish your arms would stop hurting, too.

I think it would be cool if it could just write what you're thinking...imagine that

Maybe then you could just rent your brain out, and then just do something else.

I already do that.
