Here's what these lawyers have to say:
http://www.ndasforfree.com/TSProgram03BasicProtection.html
"Don=92t go overboard and mark everything in sight confidential. If
virtually everything, including public information, is marked
=93confidential,=94 a court may conclude that nothing was really
confidential. It is better not to mark anything than to mark
everything."
