Subject: Iron Mountain Fire in East London

I saw this on the BBC website and thought ya'll might find it interesting,
especially the comments of the Iron Mountain Representative:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/5175568.stm

 "Mostly it is old archives that were not required currently, business
records. . . In most cases we wouldn't even know because most people they
use paper documents in boxes - commercial business records." He added: "We
are just interested as anybody else to know what could have caused it. It
was a fair-sized warehouse but it was full."

Best regards,

Rachel Howse Binnington
