lightspeed loud speaking plug in idea

[lightspeed]

o.k. i think its time for a new idea for a plug in , if it can be made and if someone is willing to make it for others to use . anyway everyone knows how writing in capital letters is shouing on the internet well i think it would be cool if someone could make a plug in that when capital letters are typed the hal when it would use those saying typed in capital letters would raise the voice of hal a little bit , this would be to emphasize something , etc. example " HAPPY BIRTHDAY "EVERWHO" !! i hope you have a nice birthday .
 i think this would be something cool as a plug in . if it can be made . []

ightspeed,
  I've noticed you come up with some interesting ideas. My frist thought was that Hal's brain removes the capital letters before processing, forms a sentence then puts it into the capitals before viewing.
Also since Hal is generating the sentence Hal has to provide the capital letters.

well then i wonder if their is any other simular easy way to accopmlish the same results , i think from a "one more" human type sounding response " raising the voice with certain words would be a cool thing for hal to have . the only other thing that i wonder about would be if sound is set at a preset level already how would hals "raised voice responses actually get louder (unless it adjust the p.c. sound up then back down , (or) when hal is running it would actually lower all hals voice a little bit then with the "response words " raise the sound level up .

Like your idea, the vrHaptek plugin can detect what Hal says, the trigger word or words tell the volume control to increase the level, for a length of time or until a decrease word is used.  Bill Dewitt had  a plugin to control volumes, not sure how well it worked.

Lightspeed,

Check out the demo voices at Loquendo. They use emotional inflection and are pretty realistic.
