I thought you were going somewhere else with that. Just as there is no 'away' to throw things, there is no 'secure' storage system.

  That may also be the case. Though what I'm immediately addressing is the notion implicit in Barr's proposal that there are two separate universes of inforamation tech. There really isn't. The question of whether infotech presents a fundamentally different "data physics", or if it's just an extreme form of one we've had for some time (information has an inclination to wander, digitised information more so), isn't entirely clear. That however is another question I've put some thought into. No clear conclusions as yet, though I find myself preferring paper for many forms of recordkeeping.
