Unless I missed a part of the discussion, all statements that overwriting once is not good enough, were based on rumours, assumptions, theoretical possibilities and negative evidence (data is suggested to be readable until proven otherwise). If my video store says a video is not available and another store can deliver it, does this prove that all video stores that say a video is not available are lying? Is there some report, investigation, official statement to *prove* that overwriting once is not good enough?
