A long long time ago, far far away, an application was used with only one reader field. Something happened, maybe it was a bored witch, maybe a bored serveragent and the content of the field got screwed up. It wasn't empty but nobody knew what was in it anymore. End of story......... No happy ending you say? Well, the developers certainly made sure this could never happen again. And ok I admit, the applicaton was partly saved using the backup tapes. But to me that feels like cheating.
