I too think the trash can should be a folder;  This would make life very easy
when VERY large capacity WORM storage devices come out.  Just imagin the garbage
can is a very large folder which contains anything you ever threw out (there 
are probably some problems assosiated with duplicate names but I leave that to
the software designer to solve! :-)  Since the disk has an almost unlimited
capacity (how large are current WORM disks?  I seem to recall numbers in the
gigabyte range and maybe more)  You could fill it till it was almost full and
then simply copy the stuff you want to keep to a new WORM disk (after all, they
are just cheep pieces of plastic, no?) and the garbage would be literally 
thrown out (and recycled;  show me a mac garbage can that can recycle its
contents! :-)

I dont have a .signature file in which I dont keep a disclaimer because (a) I
am lazy and (b) no one cares what I have to say anyway.

BTW,  What did the Caspian sea?
