  Though new I have been to courts in the past, and I notice too the 
potential for prolonged delays for people being called to court who simply 
could not hear.  Prolonged delays make people fidget which only increases 
the middle frequency noise which is what causes people not to hear in the 
first place.

   I still say there are creative ways the hide mic's and speakers.  We 
could even use an aerial area mic and use it to suspend The kingdom's arms 
above the Crown at the same time.  However if Crown decides it does not want 
it, I hope they drink nothing but water all day as they are going to need 
every once of their vocal chords to get by.
   I read at my Dad's wedding just Saturday and I have a good booming voice 
when I need to use it.  From where is was, I thought I was realling booming, 
but without the mic, I could only be heard above two rows out before losing  
clarity.  This was in a church of brick and with a wall behind me at an 
angle.
    One thing is for sure there is going to be something like the Monty 
Python "Blessed are the Cheesemakers" speech for Life of Brian.
