Joerg:

If money were not an object, and I weren't interested in this as a great 
opportunity to gain a meaningful learning experience, what I would need 
to do with the O'Reilly audioclips is the first two types of analyzes, 
for a total of $8,000.

  • The first service is "Voice Identification", to ascertain whether 
the voice in the CNN clip indeed was produced by that gentleman's vocal 
chords and guttural tract: Owen charges $3,500 for this.

  • Additionally, the tape would be analyzed for "Authenticity": no 
editing, cuts, etc. Nixon kind of stuff. Owen charges $4,500 for this.

See attachment.
