I second your opinion.  Now that recording conversations & emails
between people, they save everything for later coming back with
lawsuits/blackmail/etc.  There are many examples but one that comes to
mind is the Brett Favre scandal with then Jet's reporter Jen Sterger.
That was a text, and *it apparently was saved since 2008* and it
became a scandal, this of course last year and now the *LOCKOUT * :(
These people make too much money already and they want more :(  Sorry
for drifting out of topic.

An example where paperless documents are preffered, take a look at IRS
they will require users to file electronically starting next year.
They want to save paper and this is a government agency.  Schools are
implementing this too, they want to send messages to their
teachers/workers/staff because ultiimately saving the environment is
more important (too many dead trees)

Regards,

Antonio
