That would be ideal but the problem comes with working with the team. I 
can't expect the other members the team to learn the system. I need to 
be able to work according to the teams rules (coding style etc.) for 
proper integration into an effort. Maybe I should be looking at machine 
learning for identifying patterns in the code and translation back to a 
spoken form.

It be interesting to see what people could come up with though for a 
speech friendly Python model. I've been wrestling with the problem so 
long, I probably have tons of blind spots.
