For sites who cannot or won't afford offsite "real" storage, I might suggest a heavy duty fireproof (at least fire resistant) safe in another building. Get them out of the computer area! I personally think the "take it home" is a last resort idea and should be in a suitable damage-proof container. Put them in another secure, 24x7 accessible place. jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Walden H.
