Love your podcasts. One thing, I realize the general public thinks databases reflect reality, but as someone who has worked on many new and migration database projects in a myriad of industries, I will be happy to disabuse you of any such idea. What makes it into the database depends entirely upon the politics of the project. For instance, one of the most common things that happens is all the old stuff never ever gets into the database because a “go-forward” policy goes into place. Basically, only that which is acquired after the database goes live is automatically entered. Everything else is entered as it is used. This makes it entirely believable that tons and tons of stuff never makes it into an inventory.

Pax.
