possible solutions:
	
	- write a "watch-out-for-you" version of 'compress'
	  (as we wrote 'del')
	- put large signs in the clusters warning users not
	  to 'compress' when they're near or over their quota

else:
	- hope increase in default quota (from 600-1200K) delays
	  the day most users will hit the problem -- to give us
	  more time to find/implement a solution
