Note that this shouldn't be needed for Ubuntu users, as the Ubuntu gnome-speech package has been patched to 
make use of espeak's fastest rate. This is not in upstream gnome-speech yet, but will be very shortly. If you 
built gnome-speech from source for Ubuntu, please note that unless you used the source Ubuntu package, you 
likely do not have the espeak driver patched to use espeak's fastest rate.
