[AccessD] Regarding multi-value field, from a reader

And the day that it is fiber to every door, and the cloud is uninterruptable... then we can talk 
such stuff.  Until then it is pure nonsense.  Unless of course having your business completely down 
because the data center in NYC is underwater is acceptable.

None of my clients need the power of the cloud, nor is the cloud reliable enough yet.  I have no 
doubt that it will be some day soon (10 years), at which time it will make a lot of sense.

Today I think not.
