Misplaced you say?

Misplaced? As in "the company didn't want to actually pay for delivery and logistics costs" misplaced?

The problem arose because the firm tasked with arranging the delivery of internal NHS correspondence mistakenly stored it in a warehouse.

You don't "misplace" a warehouse.

Tony Pepper, co-founder and chief exec of data security company Egress, said the NHS's reliance on paper records is partly to blame for the systematic screw-up.

See?! It's all NHS's fault for relying on those pesky paper record things! How dare they, and anyone for that matter, want paper records!

Tony also has some nice bridges for sale. Anyone buying?
