bug: wild mispronunciation from Susan

[Bill Coffin]

Here is another bug:

Susan (the computer voice) tries to pronounce street names, etc. Some mispronunciation is inevitable. But...

Highway 101 should come out as "one-oh-one" or "one-zero-one". But it says "one-wess-one". Yes, we listened 6 or 7 times to make sure it wasn't "one-zed-one", which would have made sense for a British voice.

So I think the algorithm needs tweaking.

Suzie is really saying 'west' because of a fault in the lex table.
