Ok, then I will take the disk out of the disk drive, then little by little, I will break off a small piece and put it in the trash. I will do this each week until small piece by small piece and week after week I have slowly disposed of the disk.

A campfire sounded a whole lot easier but you doused that hope with your article. Thanks for the link on an interesting read.

"engineers can often sort things out over the Internet, tapping into your PC and employing a suite of remote data recovery tools"

Oh joy.
