Naughty Fawn - awe-droppers poem

I'd have been more interested if this had been a link to a site containing
recordings of genuine COT-CAUGHT merging people and non-merging people
reading the poem. Tom, you could have done the non-merging reading.
Imitations are all very well for demonstration (and they're often used, of
course), but there's no absolute guarantee that they're like what a genuine
speaker would have produced.
