This reminds me... Years ago, somebody developed a technique called "Voice
Stress Analysis," which was supposed to detect small variations in a
person's voice in response to stress. Not exactly a lie-detector, but it
was supposed to do nearly the same thing. Does anybody plan to analyze the
debates for stress? Is there software to do this? (Tried to do a
web-search; didn't see anything.)
