Paper Trail

This article is significant because I know of only one office computer (dedicated to a law suite involving an Indian tribe) that isn't a networked computer. That confidential letter on the secretaries hard drive (even though the network may not have been involved in creating it) is now discoverable because the computer is connected to the office network for email. Can you imagine Executives now requiring their confidential secretaries use manual type writers? Can you see that every legal researcher with similar files on his or her lap top is in the same situation when that laptop is also used for email and web searching?

Huzzah, what a wonderful modern age we live in. Let the legals live with paper. There usefulness in the Web 2.0 society is seriously questionable.
