I am engaged in an epic project. As part of my duties as incoming president of the Connecticut Bar Association, I have been working in the basement of CBA global headquarters in New Britain trying to winnow essential records and historically significant ephemera from the heaps, piles, drifts and dumpsters of paper accumulated over the last century or so.
The “law bidness” (as my brother in the South calls what I do) generates a lot of paper. Amazing amounts. And, on top of it, we now accumulate lots more data electronically. Unfortunately, it is easier to just keep dumping the stuff in the basement/garage/barn/storage unit than to adopt a rigorous and sane policy of retention and destruction.
