Just a friendly reminder to back up your data today!

Out server crashed yesterday, and today I have been going through what files were (ha) recovered. They are all corrupted.

Fuck.

No, I didn't lose any important scientific data, I am religious about having that backed up. What I have lost are lots of little files that make my day to day life easier. PCR Recipes, lab schedules, letter templates for sending stuff out, etc.

The last time I backed that stuff up was 2 years ago. And I''ve done a lot of new stuff since then that apparently I didn't save anywhere else. I was planning on putting a copy of those fileshere on my new laptop, but hadn't gotten to it yet.

Damn it.

Where's that after school special thread bomb?

"The more you know...."

*very sad and forlorn sigh*
