Well that narrows it down. First Tinker Bell is the one with the  
Magic Wand and the Lone Ranger is the one with the Silver Bullets.

What were we looking for again?

I think people are looking for someone to do all the work with  
classification and that is impossible across every spectrum. Peter  
can't your product take records and convert them and save them  
electronically & automatically; but the client is forced to put in  
what the type of record is?  So each time there is a record it must  
be saved as something so somebody has to at least take a stab at it.

Explain what your product does again?  Could it be linked to  
evaulting so that as records are stored via evaulting they could have  
a classification demanded of someone before they move offsite.  And  
don't try to respond offline as I told someone to look for this  
answer as I would look stupid and ask it for him.  ( Now Chris don't  
you run with the looking stupid comment. Be nice! )

Matter of fact, I think we need to start a program where we  
reintroduce ourselves from time to time.  So many of you use private  
email addresses so you never know who does what?

Here is another question.  Remember how when Katrina and previously  
at 9/11 there were not enough disaster recovery co-location spots for  
the large volume that need it.  I just heard a talk where some of the  
largest evaulting companies are fine until you have a huge event  
which causes people to start dumping lots of information off to their  
evaulters in a huge dump.  But their is a limitation on volume.   
Similar to how when 911 happened, everybody was calling everybody on  
their cell phones so the system overloaded.  It was simply not  
designed for those kinds of volume.  This can occur with evaulting.

If a huge emergency happens and dumps or call ups all happen at once,  
this can crash the systems.  You really need to work with a company  
that designs their system for you not just for the average day.  It  
is the crisis day that it really needs to work.

Well I know one thing, it was definitely the Lone Ranger for the  
Silver Bullet!  Or was that Coors.  Kathy you are from Colorado,  
which is it?
