Setting speech parameters as fast as possible.

I have found it useful to duplicate those initialization commands;
I have them in my rc.local file, but I have also placed them in
/etc/profile. I have found that sometimes when the speech device
is already talking when rc.local is executed, the initialization
commands will not be recognized. So the second placement in
/etc/profile is a kind of insurance policy.
