Silly Christopher...  You should know that Scotch tape is much more
flexible than crusted white-out!  I like the idea, though; it gives you a
physical backup of your mount table so that you can restore it when the
registry gets corrupted.

Do you have a tape reader that reads the sheet-feed sides of dot-matrix
fan paper?  I have a bunch of that lying around and it seems awfully
suited to binary anyway ;-)
