Golly, my dad gave me a laptop for my birthday, with naturally speaking
software female voice, Kate. There is just one problem; Kate refuses to say
most swear words! Why do they censor it? It should be up to the people to
decide. And it's inconsistent. It will say fucked, but not fucker, it says
shitty, but not ass..... a helper said somebody else's talking device also
won't say cuss words. i just can't believe it. Anthony, Beth, do you know
why they do it?   sure I could defeat it by spelling the words slightly
differently. But why on earth can't folks let us swear if we want to? 
microsoft's Sam can do it, why can't Kate?!
