		<description><![CDATA[Just a quick question as it&#8217;s *WAY* past my bedtime.  Has anyone else ever heard of a customer that a sales-person or tech would quit rather than set foot in? I&#8217;m remembering my days back at Disney in California.  (over 7 years ago, so I&#8217;m assuming the statute of limitations has expired on that one) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ok, I have no problem with tape.  It&#8217;s a *GREAT* backup medium when your requirement is portability for massive amounts of data and you&#8217;re not replicating said data. If I had to ship 400TB of backups to Iron-Mountain, to protect against the earthquake-to-end-all-earthquakes tape would be my FIRST choice (though maybe, as a GIANT CAVE [...]]]></description>

Of course the process is SUPPOSED to pay off in the long run, right?
