In The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande, the author makes a pretty convincing case for using checklists for mundane procedures (like pre-surgery steps). Even highly experienced doctors would miss single steps otherwise, leading to high post-surgical infection rates.
Makes sense in the aviation context. In an in-flight emergency in a cockpit, you really don't want missing steps.
I've basically done what is being proposed with the original question, but with multiple folders of legal research documents. Devonthink Pro and a Fujitsu ScanSnap has made transferring the docs to searchable PDFs (and then finding them later) remarkably straightforward.

This was on private property, though.
It seems that he could have saved himself a lot of grief by just going home and looking up pictures of the insides of ATMs on the internet.
As his own article shows, it's not like they're hard to find. But hey, fight the power and all that.
