Chris,

Before I started this records business, I was a commercial lender, and I
always recommend to my clients to NOT store their records in a bank
vault.  Almost all vaults are on a time lock and your records are
unavailable except during the hours of 9 am to 4-5 pm.

Hopefully your need to pickup a tape for a recovery happens at a
convenient time, and not at 2 am Friday morning.

Also, most vaults are not temperature or humidity controlled, have dust
filtration systems, limit electro-magnetic pulses, or are in any way
manufactured to store electronic or magnetic media.

Banks are great for storing physical items, like cash, and maybe some
paper records, but not for your tapes, that you may need at any time of
the day or week.

Just a quick thought as I head out to 3 days of the State Wrestling
Tourney in lovely Des Moines, Iowa.

Thanks, Dean.
