I copied this command off of the page: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/gzip/manual/html_node/Sample.html

The following command will find all gzip files in the current directory 
and subdirectories, and extract them in place without destroying the 
original: 
     find . -name '*.gz' -print | sed 's/^\(.*\)[.]gz$/gunzip < "&" > 
"\1"/' | sh

Is there a way to extract them to a different directory other than the 
current one.
