Appropriate in what way? How about artificial speech (computer generated).

Apparently someone wasn't sleeping in speech class as that is one of the first things that was taught. From what I remember, 6 years ago, you need to figure out who your audience is and what they might possibly be interested in. Audences are very egocentric, where they want to hear information that can benefit them in some way, shape or form. You are not going to give a speech about social security pensions to kindergarden students, catch my drift.
