Good idea to dial a friend as a way to record an encounter when you sense danger. That's a way to preserve the recording in case your attacker would take/destroy your recording device.; 6/29/13, 7:58 AM

Then, I noticed this link at the bottom of the article:

The murderer was not charged for lack of evidence.; 6/29/13, 11:34 AM

Google Voice lets me listen to a voicemail as it's being recorded. I would think that the NSA has technology that allows them to do the same thing.; 6/29/13, 11:59 AM
