	A friend is working on some sort of phonemail system and is looking
for a data compression algorithm  to compress the 8 bit audio sampled files.
Available products on IBM systems are able to compress about 50%.. Compressing
with usual methods (huffman coding, Lempel-Ziv, etc..) gives very bad results
because of the type of data involved..
