Kevin,

	You're right.  I do "like" ;) that one.  Hmmm...  I wonder what can be 
done about this, if anything.  I take it disabling silence detection 
could be a really stupid thing.  In this case, however, I have no Zap 
devices (certainly no POTS interfaces without proper hangup detection). 
  It is %100 SIP (or IAX), and I'd like to think that all of my devices 
and endpoints are somewhat sane enough to properly hangup the channel to 
end recording.  Any thoughts?

Thanks!
