Excellent explanation, autoboy. Especially the van part, although I see it when she packs the dishwasher. One minor quibble, with the family pictures. JPEG and GIF formats incorporate compression too. On a Mac in iPhoto (probably most other programs too) it asks what quality you want when you save it. Obviously higher quality = bigger files = less loss. You can tell when a GIF has too much loss - it gets blotchy. Interesting how the left brain stuff (music, pictures, video) tolerate loss and right brain stuff (words, numbers, programs) don't.
