Back up in Marshall, my hometown, they've gone and gotten fancified and new. It's nothing new for historian Ben Z.

I thought it may be an advertisement (due to its position) but lo and behold, there was gentle whizzing and clanking and a mechanical voice began voicing Ben's article to me right then and there. And it was much better than previous mechanical readers. Better intonation, selective emphasis, more normal pacing - in short, fairly tolerable. It moved along faster than an ox and very little snorting.
