Think INside the box. Keep your eye on the donut hole.
The companies that dislike off-site storage are gonna re-organize
every two years. They know what there doing, so why would we want to
work for them?
Even more important, the company that invents WMD-Apes is gonna
explode. That's why we need the docs off-site. We'll still have the
systems, but not the tech support people. Google will back this thing
up. Still a lot of work to do, but we're in it for the long haul.
