Seemingly trivial topics on this blog harbor important points

Some posts hear deal with seemingly trivial subjects, ones that a general counsel would be excused for passing over quickly (See my posts of Oct. 18, 2006 on shredders; May 4, 2007 on cubicles and architecture; Sept. 21, 2005 on no-hire provisions in secondment agreements; Jan. 24, 2006 on voice training; June 16, 2007 on CLE and tracking it; June 6, 2006 on fingerprint identification systems; and Oct. 18, 2006 on RFID tags.

Each topic is a major concern, so the small components have importance.
