You could run 'say `date`' as a cron job.
Make sure to specify your own date format. The user's default one will
probably sound silly.
For example,
date "+The time now is %I:%m %p on %A %B %e %Y"
will return
The time now is 09:12 pm on Friday December 12 2008
The system voices will pick it up as a date and say "twelfth" instead
of "twelve". Compare this with my default format:
Fri 12 Dec 2008 21:27:14 GMT
I had to listen to that several times to work out what it was saying.
It is spoken ridiculously fast.
See date man page for more info.
