Re: MIDRANGE-L Digest, Vol 6, Issue 1463

"Excuse me if I step on some toes here, but I can't help it. I've been
reading thru this message thread and the term "paranoia" keeps coming
to mind. I like the Wikipedia definition best - "a disturbed thought
process characterized by excessive anxiety or fear, often to the point
of irrationality and delusion. Paranoid thinking typically includes
persecutory beliefs concerning a perceived threat."

What's not to stop someone from using cut/paste functions on the
emulator to paste it into a word doc, or txt file, etc."

I agree. This is obviously one of those absurd SARBOX auditor
requirements, come up with by an auditor that has NO computer experience or
sense of reality and is probably looking to assure long term employment. I
mean, what's to prevent someone from looking at ANY report or inquiry
screen, and using a paper and pencil to write the data down (or evenusing
something as high-tech as a photocopier... GASP!), folding up the paper and
putting it in their sock and walking out. Or even using a camera cell
phone and snapping a picture of sales numbers. What's next? Some of these
auditors have to get real. Or accept the fact that we live in a time
period more modern than 1812.

You wouldn't believe some of the other stuff I've heard. Or been required
to work on. And we build camping trailers...... very nice campers, but not
exactly super security level products......
