Point of symantics:  Not the correct word - "wiped."  They are simply 
insecurely deleted, just like deleting any other file from windows 
explorer.  "Wiped" implies securely erased.  I know you know the 
difference, but don't want new users to think Tor / TBB securely erases 
data it deletes.

More later on a way I thought of  to securely del * ALL * TBB data after 
a session.
