[TriLUG] OT - well, I do want to save the file on Linux

I have a friend who works in Minnesota.  He has an employee who is 
always calling into work sick on Monday morning and is obviously 
calling very drunk or stoned - perhaps both.  Some of his incoherent 
rambles are hilarious so we are investigating ways to record these 
voicemails for later posterity.  Saving them directly on the system is 
out of the question.  I need to call in via a phone line then record 
these vmails in the highest possible quality.  I then need to edit the 
files to beep out specific names and references, but other then that 
I'd just like to save them.  OOG format is okay, but mp3 is preferred 
for iPod playback.

I've got a couple linux boxes and several macs to work with.  Whatever 
works best.

Any ideas?

Greg
