Spoken phrases in *encrypted* VoIP conversations

I would have thought that just finding spoken phrases out of a voice stream would 
have been impressive.  Doing so in a speaker-independent situation would be more 
so.  But to do it with encrypted VoIP calls really calls VoIP encryption standards 
into question.

(Wonder if they can do it with Skype?)

I used to be an avid hacker in an electrical sense, building
things.  And ever since computers, I find it very similar.
Computing is an addiction.  Electronics is a similar addiction
but not as clean.  Much dirtier.  Things burn out.
