Utilising the Anti Trail-Off technology, the device listens for other people finishing your sentences, then with noise cancelling hardware, simply blanks them out, allowing you to actually say your own words.

I strongly suspect that some of the oldies (vs newbies) are going to start an "anti-anti" campaign. |

As long as it's not anti- Aunty campain... |

Anti-moron noise-cancelling hardware should have its own posting, there's a whole plethora of uses for it. I need one of... |

Of course, then there are those who take a half-hour to complete a sentence, between all of the 'um's, 'uh,' 'and uh.' Perhaps the noise-canceller could delete those out, too. |

This device must be able to know when to allow everyone to interject … as it should whenever you use ‘so’ as an adverb. |

… so hot … [How hot was it?] |

I was thinking of a device which would essentially provide a noise free local environment, by listening to surrounding sounds, inverting the signal and rebroadcasting it. A 'don't blank the owner's speech pattern' system would allow one's own voice to carry through. It's all very readily available technology, apart from the last bit, which is sadly the bit that makes it work. But that bit is still possible. Oh yes, and the owner's voice needs to activate the blanking function, so it only works while you are speaking. |

Werrllll, since when did the hb solutions have to be easier than real life? |
|
| |
Enviromemental noise cancellation (adaptive subtraction) with an exception for the 'owners voice.' |
|
| |
Perhaps the 'cancelled one' would get the picture more quickly if instead of being cancelled out, their verbage was simply scrambled into giberish. |
|
| |
Not so good - the machine would be unlikely to differentiate *their* gibberish from *my* gibberish. |
