I saw a doco once on the Discovery channel re the US navy .... to make sure they have "back up" information should the computer systems go down, there is a complete copy of ALL technical, enginering, etc info that may possibly be required on board, in paper format.
On a modern battleship class vessel they stated this apparently equates to around 17 tonnes of documents.
The Paperless Society is alive and well!
(Not!)
