I tried this on Linux, silmply gunzip and it works.

I also tried it with 7zip on Windows, and it seems it
does not unzip, an the file size stays the same.
Same with the gzip Windows binary from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gzip.htm

Seems like a bug in the gzip library on Windows.

I have sent a bug-report to support@gzip.org

I used File Archiver or file roller as supplied by Fedora and I was 
unable to open the file in gedit. I tried doing cat 2009-August.txt and 
got what looked like output from a binary file or at least not a text 
file. I tonight tried unpacking from the command line (gunzip -dfv 
2009-August.txt.gz) and got the same results. I had tried it also to the 
December file.
