If I recall correctly, one of IBM's favorite tactics
in the now-ancient-history anti-trust case against 
them was to respond to discovery motions by sending
tractor trailer loads of paper in which, lo and behold,
said documents were actually located.  Literally.

I never thought I would say this, but for the moment
and the time, "God bless IBM's lawyers."
