Actually, there is backwards compatability - HFS+ can read HFS. But HFS
can not read HFS+ [both as you stated]. What that means is there is no
forwards compatiablity. HFS was created before HFS+, so it doesn't know
about future versions of the filesystem. But HFS+ does know and understand
HFS just fine.
