OZZPOT  I am a professional icon designer, and have dispatched a shiny new icon to the developers. Just a matter of seeing if they approve it now!  (Version 4.5.16)

MAXRUEHL  My brother was a published author on Linguistics and a college professor, but, sadly he passed away in 1998. I wish he could have been around to see this application. I think it would have been right up his alley.  (Version 4.5.0.7)

ONLOOKER  This is a fabulous application. I've been using it to analyse swallowing behaviour (if you think this isn't a problem wait until you can't eat)! You record the data using an electronic stethoscope, import the data into Praat and compare the spectrograms of people with normal swallows and people with swallowing problems. The versatility of Praat, sophistication and ease of use are unmatched. Five stars all round.  (Version 4.5.0.4)
