Back in the mid 1980's, Microsoft did a public demonstration of their speech recognition software at a trade show. Tried to find a link but apparently the story hasn't survived anywhere google has noticed. :(

At this trade show, they set up a DOS machine and were showing how it could interpret vocal commands to run various programs and someone in the audience stodd up and yelled "DEL star dot star slash arrr slash q" and the machine faithfully complied to the horror of the softies. :)
