: "The tape was being carried by a commercial carrier ... and was lost in 
: transit," said Ron Sommer, at the bank's Downtown offices. "It was 
: ground transportation delivery, and it didn't reach its destination."

The amount of data loss incidents due to backup media being lost in 
transit is disgusting. While everyone looks to the oragnizations like BNY 
for these incidents, they need to disclose which commercial carriers are 
losing the data like this. 

I want to see the data and determine if a specific carrier or service is 
primarily at fault here if that is where the blame lies.
