Actually, liquids CAN be compressed, but they do not compress as much as
gases do.  In high school we had a general science textbook that stated that
water could not be compressed.  I asked my Dad (B. S. in Mechanical
Engineering from M. I. T.) about that and he dug out one of his old
textbooks and came up with a chart on the compressibility of water.  He then
started reviewing my textbook and in looking over just about a third of the
book had a major list of incorrect information he found in it.

DOug,
   Simple and to the point. You can not compress a fluid. You can only
use a complessor on gases.
