Consider, too, how excited your "speaker"--in this case the
application--should be about the message. On one of my computers, every time
I boot up I get a message from my BIOS saying something like, "<brandname>
<version> BIOS successfully loaded!" I always find it rather disturbing that
it is so surprised at its own success. ;-)
