I used the simple minded BSD4.3 UNIX compress utility and achieved 30 % compression on the voice mail message attached to the above referenced article. A compression routine with more knowledge of what is essential to preserve in a voice mail message might be able to attain even more compression. AJ Annala, USC Neuroscience Program
