That does bring up another reason for encrypting data: To maybe make
it possible to do warranty returns on dead disks that were used to
store sensitive data.

And you make a good point: Neither encrypted data nor keys have to be
military quality to be useful.  No more than the locks on my house
have to be Fort Knox-quality to be useful.  


-kb, the Kent who tries to be capable of spotting dangers without
being dangerous.
