That must have been before hard drives became much more
reliable (and the "Park" program wasn't needed). :D
Looking over at our tape "boneyard", I can't agree that tape is
[now] more reliable. Since they may have student or employee
info on them, we have to destroy them. At least it's easier to
destroy tape than hard drives. :D
