I still can't get over what an imbecile this guy is.
If each character represents 7-bits, you need to strip out a SHITLOAD of whitespace before you make any noticeable difference in download size.
In fact, a better (related) piece of advice would be to eliminate tables for layout and use CSS. I once did a cleanup of a site for [very large US Government agency] which used tables that were nested 7-deep and had over 100 spacer images for their basic site template. It was nearly 200kb in markup alone. I trimmed it own to 14kb using a new CSS layout and the site looked 100% the same.
