Has anyone figured out how to solve the doctor/drive abbreviation problem in
eSpeak?  I tried several things and nothing helped.  I tried adding an entry for
drive in english.list, but eSpeak still says doctor all the time.  I put it
after doctor and it said drive all the time.  I tried explicitly putting the dot
in the entry for doctor, but then it said drive all the time.  And when I
removed the entry for drive, it simply said d r even if there was a dot after
it.  Has anyone figured out the right way to do this?  Did I maybe forget
something that would have made a difference?  I can use similar help in the
matter of the saint/street problem as well.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
