A friend put a loop into a report and almost got fired for it. He worked in a government office where the printers were in a seperate building and any print-out was brought over hourly; he didn't know anything was wrong until they brought an out of schedule cart just for him, and asked him to sign an expenses form for the extra boxes of paper his report was using.
MV databases work well with XML because of already using delimiters to seperate fields, and becuase of treating everything as a string.
As for being the best for everything else - well, it's an easily modified data structure and can be changed to suit whatever reality throws at it, without requiring a major redesign. Which is also it's weakness - the programmer has more control and authority than any database designer, analyst, or manager.
Still out there, being used by thousands of companies in every industry. But as it's not relational, and has always suffered from poor publicity, it hardly ever gets mentioned.

Pretty similar to ours - though we only have a suggested version, and can make whatever changes we see fit. Still doesn't stop people adding it to one-line internal messages with no confidential data. I would have thought HIPAA itself would have a standard version.

We've found that if you're paying automatically by credit card, then when the expiration date for the card come round some of the services get suspended. Tell them the expiration date from the replacement card and the services go back on.

One of the Cabaret Voltaire albums used this; you knew something wasn't 'right' but you couldn't be sure what it was.
Safari works, though only as long as the emails aren't in Rich Text (the locked-down default where I work).

That amount of data has to be a company, not a common man.

There was a campaign for iPods and new beetles, but that was just a fancy cup/iPod holder.
