Create a program that will produce a faithful rendition of The Sussman's voice saying the phrase "Have you read your SICP today?" when its output is sent to /dev/dsp. "SICP" is to be pronounced "ess eye see pee", so the whole phrase goes like "hav yoo red yor ess eye see pee t'dai" (with proper intonation and pacing)
Sounds easy? There's one more condition you need to be aware of -- you cannot use existing text-to-speech libraries, and the size of the source code, stripped of whitespace, cannot exceed 8192 bytes.
Extra points for getting the binary under 8K as well. Entries will be judged by the realism and quality of the sound. Use any existing programming language you want, with the exception of Whitespace.
