Yes, that it is true. _I_ cannot read powered-off DRAM... But my feathered
friends beyond the seven mountains with bird-like heads and big muscled chests
and arms and legs and a super-duper-computer (abbr.: CIA) could possibly do
that...

At least I saw that in TV (CSI Wanne-Eickel or so), how they read from a
overwritten hard disc shreddered with a "laser"...
