Hey, do yourself a favor and listen to the fun example:

> [S1] Oh fire! Oh my goodness! What's the procedure? What to we do people? The smoke could be coming through an air duct!

Seriously impressive. Wish I could direct link the audio.

Kudos to the Dia team.

A little overacted, it reminds me of the voice acting in those flash cartoons you'd see in the early days of YouTube. That's not to say it isn't good work, it still sounds remarkably human. Just silly humans :)

Reminded me of the Fenslerfilm G.I. Joe sketch where the kids have something on the stove burning
