Sounding multiple beeps - a new solution!

Here's a kinder, gentler method than Mr Knapp's technique of beating the CPU
into submission with pi.

set bufferList to {"*(", ":(", "!("}

repeat with theBuffer in bufferList
repeat 3 times
beep
say theBuffer
end repeat
say "!<("
end repeat

...and for those who require a little more precision:

set bufferList to {"[[slnc 50]]","[[slnc 150]]","[[slnc 400]]"} -- etc.

NB - The punctuation pauses work in OS X 10.2.1, but when I tried them in OS
9.1 (AS 1.8.3), "*" and "<" were verbalised.
