Happy Birthday HAL !

Obviously, I have soft spot for this movie (see avatar at left <--)

Douglas Rain could have made a (possibly small) fortune had he given his voice for a GPS announcer before phones took over that function. (I still prefer a dedicated GPS so google is not tracking me everywhere I go, but that's another rant.) If you could replace your Alexa/Siri/Google home voice with a custom voice, how many of us would choose Douglas? (It’s possible you can do so, I don’t know because I use none of these service because of you know, not wanting them listening to everything that goes on in my house.) I know, Majel Barrett would be a close second if not first. Unfortunately, we have lost both Douglas and Majel.
