True dat. I've had it happen myself. And I'm not knocking the idea of automation; I have a full backup that runs nightly; a backup of the backup that runs weekly, on an Amazon S3 server; and all--ALL--of our business files are on Dropbox, which is a backup system, for all intents and purposes, itself. So...not knocking the idea. Just...what's the First Rule of Disk Club? Everybody SAVES at Disk Club. ;-)

Now, don't get me wrong. I still think it is peoples' responsibility to save their work as they go along. Being careful, or even extra-careful, never hurt anyone.
