I often like to have a lengthy article read to me out loud with a voice that I choose from the many voices available with my Mac. Does Firefox have a text to speech feature available to me as a 'tool' that I can easily access and use?

http://mactoids.com/text-to-speech-on-a-mac/ It looks like you can set a keyboard shortcut in your system preferences and then use that shortcut in Firefox.
