Jonathan, this thread reminded of something with no connection with AR but now you have mentioned the USA 'voice' I will. On UK Radio 4 there is a long running programme 'Desert Island Discs' where celebrities have to choose 8 records to take to a desert island, some years ago the journalist James Cameron wanted a reading of the shipping forecast; a wonderful piece of spoken English read with clarity - great stuff!
