Play Zork over the phone with Zasterisk

ZasteriskWhat do you get when you combine the Z-Machine text adventure engine with open source phone exchange system Asterisk? Zasterisk, a novel combination of voice recognition and text-to-speech that allows you to play Zork and other Infocom text adventures over the phone. Is this something anybody really needs? Well, duh, no. Is it pretty cool? Yes. However, I take no responsibility for the looks you're going to receive if you shout "attack baby hungus!" into your cell phone on a crowded train.
