Now that the unpleasant Ian Paisley is back on stage, we'll probably be
getting clips of his speech from time to time. I'm curious to know how a
word like "now" as spoken by him would be represented in IPS. It seems to
be a at least a tri- if not quadri -phthong. It makes me think of an
opal....it has so many sound elements in it.
