One of the SIG leaders at the local Mac users group records
sessions using a microphone that plugs into his iPod.  The
results are at least as good as the typical cassette record I've
used for taking notes and such.

If you want government to intervene domestically, you're a liberal.  If you
want government to intervene overseas, you're a conservative.  If you want
government to intervene everywhere, you're a moderate.  If you don't want
government to intervene anywhere, you're an extremist -- Joseph Sobran
