how about letting people from all places send in their wave files.
Just like:
"hi, I am Grunthos the Flatulent. I pronounce exim exim and my favourite
poem is:
Oh frettled gruntbuggly,
thy micturations are to me,
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a
lurgid bee.
Groop I implore thee,
my foonting turlingdromes.
And hooptiously drangle me with
crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts
with my blurglecruncheon,
see if I don't!"
Sorry, I couldn't resist... I just found http://www.vogon.com/guide/ :)
cheerio,
Volker
