david e30effca46 Fix Gemini voice genders in books 9-12 (achernar is a female voice)
Male-described speakers were mapped to the female voice achernar (and a few
females to schedar) — 210 VOICE swaps across the four regenerated books.
Also: book-11 'Two Letters' now labeled Jane:/Ann: with female voices
instead of one Narrator (Yana's report), and junk auto-declared 'VOICE: ID'
lines dropped.

# Source: ST §Simple Present as Future
$GRAMMAR Simple Present as Future
ID: l2-s19
INTRO: Here's a useful trick of English: for schedules and plans, the simple present can point to the future.
Sometimes we use the simple present tense to express a future action. All of these mean the same future event:
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| The bus | will arrive | tomorrow. |
| | is going to arrive | |
| | is arriving | |
| | arrives | |
{The bus arrives tomorrow.} — the simple present works because a future word like "tomorrow" tells you when.
