Do you have a PI license?

What do you mean Joe?

just what I said, it's a misuse of the word, to investigate is to uncover information for a purpose, to discover some fact or series of facts to point to a conclusion. To recover merely means to keep data from being lost forever. One has nothing to do with the other.

I agree.

investigate - To observe|study by close|systematic examination

recover - To save from loss and restore to usefulness. To gain by legal process.

exactly, and it really is just that simple. This by no means guarantees that everybody who does recovery will be scrupulous about it, but the law should embrace the ideal, and then punish the deviation. This law is wrong. Inarguably incorrect.
