I often hear the statement that our voting machines need to have paper trails. Technically, this isn't true. What we need is _some_ sort of voter-verifiable, recount-enabling trail. It need not specifically be printed on paper. Granted, printed ballots are a reasonable solution, but we shouldn't focus on one particular technology or technique at the exclusion of all others.
