You bet.  In fact, as some one who works in tech support, I can tell you that you can \
recover the complete text of any word document simply by opening it in notepad and \
scrolling past the initial binary data.  WordPerfect on the other hand is a real \
bear.  It replaces the space character with another high ascii character, and adds a \
bunch of data interspersed amongst the words.  It's a pain to recover a corrupted \
file in WP.
