Seems like it would be a simple matter to amplitude modulate the noise
spectrum with a 1 to 5 Hz sine wave in order to simulate the speech 
envelope. A more complicated, but perhaps more realistic implementation
would be to combine a 1 to 5 Hz gaussian noise spectrum with a 
200 - 3000 Hz gaussian spectrum with the syllabic component weighted 
appropriately. Probably not that hard for an experienced DSP person
to put together. A .WAV file could be then distributed via the internet 
and played via soundcard with the repeat function activated.
