Paul,

As mentioned, I only inherited the environment :-)  I was told that the 
reason this was being done was they wanted to have the tapes and 
sessions protected until they decided to explicitly unprotect them.  I 
think it stemmed more from paranoia and lack of understanding from the 
business.  It is a bit of a make work thing.
