Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say a comb-bound book with removable pages
is INadmissible in court.  Anything can be presented, but if two opposing
logs with competing entries are presented to a judge and one is bound and
one has removable pages....

Hey, my own log has been GBC bound for years and years, and I am WAY too
lazy to make all the entries one might need to convince a judge that the
sudden detail in it surrounding events subject to trial reflect a continuing
practice of diligent log-keeping.  However, when I reprint a bunch of new
blank pages, I will number them and find a macho stapler and BIND the heck
out of them and let the staples rust a bit to show that no pages have been
removed.
