Control iTunes from any account using speech

I discovered, by accident, that if you control iTunes (or anything, I guess!) using speech in Panther, you can switch to another account, and speakable items will continue to work in the original account. My wife and I use a microphone to control my Mac (mostly iTunes) as its in the basement (poor thing!) and our stereo is upstairs. Quite often, some other account is in use besides the "Entertainment" account where iTunes lives and (we thought) it required a trip downstairs to switch back. I guess we were wrong!

Hope you find this useful!
