I am looking for a firefox add-on or extension that - much like "chrome speak" for Chrome - can read selected text aloud using windows SAPI tts voices (no crapp java script voices) please help, thanks!

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
