I really dislike the term "forever" in relation to records retention. Permanent is permanent. Forever has no place in RIM retention policy...; perhaps the term is best used in fairy tales and romantic poetry.
<snip>I asked him about that. He said
that while they may debate about what should be permanent, permanent means
forever. He was very definitive about it. I thought that was
interesting. I'm not sure anyone quite knows how to store records forever,
particularly electronically.<snip>
