Luckily there is a new requirement where paper records will not be accepted. All new records must be digitized.

True fact: the workers' tears are the source of the "fourth river," an artesian aquifer under the Point.

I’ve actually been there. It’s a cool facility.

Me too, some of my company's physical media gets retained there. They have a bunch of old celluloid prints from ancient movies they store there because it's the ultimate in stable environments.

I think the had a fire a bit ago though.

If you've ever seen a government computer system, coded by some "money-saving" low-bid contractor, doing it by hand is probably faster. At least you don't need to physically store all of the papers...

I’ve been there many times. It’s obviously still record storage, but the big operation is the data centers down there.

They used to use the flooded portions of the mine to assist on cooling the systems but they’ve actually raised the entire temperature of the water and mountain lol
