Phil is also co-Director of the Protein Data Bank (PDB), whose
vast store of data-most major journals and funding agencies now
require scientists to submit relevant protein structure data to PDB - has become a key resource for the biology and genomics research communities.
The three analogies: (1) whereas a pre-electronic paper record can be symbolized by a piece of paper in a file drawer, an electronic record is like a drop of water in a pool of water, i.e., it is completely dependent upon its ERMS for its existence, accessibility, and «integrity» (as that word is used in the electronic records provisions of the Evidence Acts; e.g. s. 31.2 (1)(a) CEA); (2) if expert opinion evidence were rendered admissible in the way that electronic records are, there would be no evidence presented, nor cross-examination allowed, as to the qualifications of the expert witnesses, i.e., the «qualifications» of an electronic record being the state of records management of the ERMS in which it is
stored; (3) going from a horse - powered transportation system to a motor vehicle - based transportation system has
required a
vast amount of new laws, regulations, and enforcement personnel, including police officers, judges, and lawyers, i.e., stepping up to a new technology
requires that it be controlled by new laws and regulations, otherwise it will cause injury, damage, and injustice.
