After Hurricane Katrina, one of the things I ended up doing at work was helping Soldiers re-create documents that were lost in the aftermath of the storm, specifically college transcripts. (Several schools suffered very heavy damage.) It's a good idea to scan all of your important documents and keep a copy on a flash drive or something that you can put in your emergency pack if you have to evacuate for some reason. I don't assume anymore that I'll be able to get additional copies of any documents that are lost -- this is another area where redundancy is a good thing.
