I don't think anyone in this thread is 'fixated' on the idea of airgapping; but 
it's generally a good idea whenever possible, and as restrictive a 
communications policy as is possible is definitely called for, amongst all the 
other things one ought to be doing.

It's also important to note that it's often impossible to *completely* airgap 
things, these days, due to various interdependencies, admin requirements 
(mentioned before), and so forth; perhaps bastioning is a more apt term.
