>“For years we have gone to speech therapy to change the way we speak to make it more comfortable for others. Can't speak for everyone, but that was never my motivation for going to speech therapy...

So, I didn't really know what to expect as far as the listener's reaction was concerned. A few days ago, some representatives from the local NSA chapter came to speak to our class, and one man describ...
