Reminds of one of Cory's sayings: "My problem is not theft. It is obscurity."
There is a restaurant in Bangkok whose menus were so encyclopedic with
social, cultural and gastronomical trivia about the Thai that they
(the menus) was frequently stolen. The owner of the restaurant
eventually came up with the solution of having 5 menus - all of them
containing the list of dishes, but each one containing a different bit
of the social/cultural/gastronomical information. The intent being if
someone stole the menu only a fifth of the information would be lost.
