I've been meaning to have a crack at hooking together Asterisk
(OpenSource, http://www.asteriskpbx.com/main/), Festival (Speech
Synthesis, http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/), Sphinx (OS,
speech recognition, http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/sphinx/), Perl and one
of the info bots/POE for a couple fo years now. 

I've just never had the time :(

Fairly easy to write your own 'Wildfire'-esque system with this. Hook it
into Mister House (open source home automation program,
http://misterhouse.net/) and you could do some really funky things by
just phoning up your house
