There is little activity on this User Group thanks to Dick Doe. He
objects to the fact eMicrophones sell products as well as provide
information. This is of course is very American and indicates Dick Doe
isy UnAmerican. I thought I'd point Speech Recognition users to our
informative eMicrophones web site at:
http://www.eMicrophones.com

You will find a Links/Articles section within which are sound files on
how to sound and how not to sound as well as the short article, Key
Steps to High Speech Recognition Accuracy which has helped thousands
of speech recognition users become proficient. In addition, you will
find a FAQ or frequently asked questions section divided into
categories having to do with software, hardware, Dragon
NaturallySpeaking, and Microsoft Speech. Of course you can also see
and compare many different kinds of microphones, one of which should
be right for you.

Also while visiting our website at http://www.eMicrophones.com look at
the testimonials on the lower left side where you will see direct
quotes from customers like:
"I wanted to thank you for your time and patience with me on the phone
the other day. The headset and pod have made a major difference. I am
writing much more effectively and efficiently.

The malicious misfit Martin Markoe's only USENET activity is spamming
the speech users group, filling the archives with his advertising, and
driving other regular authors away.

If you deal with the spammer, check a price comparison web site before
you get ripped off.

Following are a few quotes from others directed to the chronic liar
and malicious troll Martin Markoe. They help illustrate the annoyance
and frustration that unrestrained advertising causes for real users
looking for help on unmoderated USENET groups.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/3becc9fa6c340ffc?

You are not a technologist. You sell microphones.

Marty, how come whenever someone disagrees with you, you get into this
high school urinating contest mode? Actually I can't find your
credentials anywhere either, except as a guy selling something.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/473a2b3f9dd6a0f0?

Man you really are full of yourself! Just leave me alone. I asked you
a question. Silly me, I wanted to know what I was buying before I
bought it. How absurd! I then get email after email after email from
you telling me that you won't answer my question and trying to justify
it. Lets cut the crap. You won't answer my question. I won't buy from
you. So now go away and let me get USEFUL information from someone who
will be honest with me instead of evasive, devisive and insulting!

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/d256b8b7563712e9?

More importantly I am not here touting my business. A position which
makes anything you say suspect, doesn't it.

I have been watching this group for a long time and you have managed
to turn it into the eMicrophones, Inc. mail list. Almost no one with
expertise posts here any longer.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/6014c0e38032578f?

Is anyone else beyond annoyed with the two pathetically desperate
"small business owners" that have driven this group into the ground?

I subscribed 6 months ago hoping to learn something about the
"state-of-the-art" in voice recognition from the user's perspective.

All I've managed to learn is that most users are apparently being
ripped off by over-charging slimy weaseloid microphone hawkers.

Martin Markoe and Mr. "speaktoyourpc.com", I beg you to consider the
number of potential customers you're pissing off before you further
demonstrate your witlessness by posting again. Your childish
King-of-the-Group games should've stopped a loooong time ago.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/3b57c2d47a1d5994?

Well said...Refreshing.

[That in response to the prior message.]

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/ce73180162c1d199?

... dealing with you on the newsgroups is not an easy thing and most
always turns into some type of flaming war.

... you do get into fights with many regarding microphones and you do
wave your website around more often than necessary and you don't
always tell the truth about competitive products.

I didn't respond because I simply did not want to get into another
fight which is the reason my posts have been very light in the last
few months.

Here are my qualifications. Certified and trained for Philips
SpeechMagic, IBM ViaVoice, IBM Medspeak, Kurzweil VoiceMed, Dragon
NaturallySpeaking Enterprise & L&H VoiceXpress... So please, don't
call me a "Charlatan" because it is simply not true.

And believe me when I tell you that some users actually get better
recognition from $20 headsets than with $100 headsets.

I see vendors posting all the time and as long as you are not a member
of the newsgroup, there aren't constant one-up battles.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/ba6cc5fd879272fd?

After getting caught with his pants down regarding his so called
privacy policy, Martin continues to make a complete ass out of
himself.

With this pattern of behaviour, the next step is usually
stalking--email stalking (... to menacingly spread deceit)

[Coincidentally, Martin Markoe did exactly that recently.]

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/84f362b69d93a460?

... you don't see the authors in all the newsgroups in a constant
battle. Only with you Marty.

You have left such a bad taste in my mouth about your constant
bickering...

I can't believe you are talking about spamming. I have seen posts from
you that link to as many as 8 direct links to your website (all in one
post) and your signatures fall within 5 or 10 lines long. In my book,
that's called SPAMMING.

... about 2 weeks ago, you claimed to have sold thousands of GN MPA
Satellites. I know for a fact that is not true.

This has become a game and if the flaming stops, perhaps we can get
this group active again.

Guess what Marty.... I have a life. I don't have time to live on the
newsgroups as you do.

This is the 2nd time you have mentioned me being moderated on user
groups. Last time, you apologized about confusing me with someone
else. YOU ARE OUT OF CONTROL MARTY MARKOE.

Marty, your constant abuse on these newsgroups... must come to an end.

http://groups.google.com/group/comp.speech.users/msg/5585a5e972b1cc1c?

I give up. I've dealt with delusional people like you before, and it
leads to nowhere... you continue attacking people who are FAR more
experienced and qualified than you, not to mention professional...

Martin, I take exception to your implication that not being American is
somehow a problem.

Not that I'm defending John Doe, but if you are to continue this silly
flamewar with your evil alter ego, I would appreciate your doing so
without insulting 3/4th or more of the planet.

Hubert,

As a lurker on this board (and others) I resent you referring to John
Doe as Martin's alter ego. Doe is an absolute waste of time and space
and offers nothing of value here. While I have not yet purchased
anything from Martin, I enjoy his posts and find his web site to be
wealth of knowledge on speech recognition. And no I don't know
Martin.

As far as not being an American, my guess is that you're in the
minority and most people here are (at least the few who are left that
Doe hasn't chased away). It would be nice to take a little census.
Regardless the term un-American used by Martin means to me Anti
Business Intellectually Devoid. Personally I don't care where you
from offer something of value here or don't waste my time. Doe kind of
reminds me of those yahoos who are in my junk mail folder everyday
attempting to sell me Viagra.

Ok to go back to lurking.

Bill

You shouldn't cheer lead for a malicious spammer troll either. This
group is not for selling microphones. Much more technically inclined
users offer help in many different USENET groups without constantly
advertising their commercial web site. This tiny group is an exception
because, so far, not enough knowledgeable and well-intentioned
regulars stick around to correct the spammer.
