Hi,

observers and participants in discussions about the relative merits of
digital and paper archiving may be amused by this story:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/2534391.stm

In summary, a 1980s version of Domesday has been unreadable for 16 years
because the digital technology they stored it on went out-of-date. The
original is still quite readable after almost 1,000 years.

Cheers,
 Bob
