>>the only way you're going to find it is via an index

This only applies to HC delivery right?

Both of Susan's examples support one of my pet contentions: the most
accurate and complete information in the world is useless if you can't find
it, and chances are, the only way you're going to find it is via an index. A
GOOD index. In the examples Susan cited, the lack of comprehensive indexing
made the information nearly impossible to find.
