Speech Recognition and TTS in less than 500kb

Wow, it seems like this might beat out flite for very-low-memory TTS? I ended up abandoning a project of mine because I couldn't get high enough quality or low enough memory usage out of flite, so I'm very excited to try this out.

Flite for comparison: https://github.com/festvox/flite

Thank you for this. I love your work on Curb Your Enthusiasm.

What work?

Probably a joke that the author looks like someone on the show? I'm puzzled as well.
