And what lengths would you go to to get it back? Roger Ebert, who one could say used his voice to make a career, takes us on his fascinating journey through losing it to throat cancer and his subsequent attempts to get it back, literally! Through text-to-speech, emotional readings from his wife and friends, and even a synthesized version of his own speech, he describes what it has been like to create a new "voice," both auditory and in print. It is also fun to hear about Mr. Ebert's love and early adoption of technology, see his optimism despite his "disability," and hear his take on the new "voice" media and the internet can give people. Two thumbs up, Mr. Ebert.
