too lazy to scroll to find out if someone else said this to you, but...
three words, darlin': digital. voice. recorder.
it's not perfect, there're still minor "translating from brain" issues, plus, issues about hearing your own voice recorded (which i seem to recall reading someplace that you don't happen to have, so yay and all) and transcription b.s., but most of the time a jog is all it takes to get back the tone and content of the whole epiphanous chunk of whatever and it's a lifesaver on roadtrips or, say, while fixing lunch. but, um (this is the catch), you have to remember to actually CARRY the damn thing. tethered to your neck, preferably. (i'm searching for a waterproof version, myself.)
i know. someone else has probablybeaten me to this... just add my vote to the pile. *grin*
