It's like taking system backups... 99% of the time it's a wasted effort, but 
it's worth doing because of the other 1%.

Subject: [Prime] Double-checking

I've set one of my computers to run double-checking as it's not switched
on full time.
Which leads me to wonder: how often does double-checking actually come
up with a different result from the original ?

In other words, how valuable an activity is it ?
Thanks
Jason Clements
