Thanks for the links, and especially Ice-T's statements about all this *&#$%* type stuff that he has never understood or read in his life, pretty good laugh.

 

However, as that second link points out somewhere in is text, this sort of thing is easier to read that to speak, and much easier to read than it is to 'listen' to.

 

Most books don't translate all that well into spoken verse, descriptions of areas lose their power, hearing someone tell you there is wind just doesn't translate as well when spoken, as you are not as deeply involved/immersed as you become when you actually read the books.

 

I have a huge number of R.A.Salvatore books, some if them signed, many hardbacks, and a huge number of them duplicated in paperbacks, sometimes with multiple copies of the paperback as well.

You have a point, especially when we know that one reader in particular didn't understand what he was reading.  It's often apparent when a reader or actor doesn't actually understand the text.  Incorrect inflection and intonation caused by not understanding the meaning of the text slips by far more often than pronunciation, and although you can figure out the intended meaning from the words and context alone, it still jars you out of the listening experience.
