A quick and dirty suggestion that just occured to me: log random statements
heard by NPCs, with more important (ie, a townguard vs a peasant) NPCs
having a higher probablity to 'remember' a given statement. Then, at your
(or whoever's) leisure, page through the log looking for interesting stuff.
This would probably be most useful at the begining, since it will key you
off to what your triggers should actually be.
