Thank you for dropping by. (Time travellers, even those try to pass as contemporary, are always welcome. It was a brilliantly effective impersonation!)

I too once lost a quarter or more of a deck, but a good deal more of my stress in this regard has occurred at the computers of others when they cry out to me, Please help me get my work back! In most cases, of course, I have been unsuccessful. In one spectacular case some years ago where the content lost was so critical that suicide for the creator in question was not beyond possibility, I spent a period of several days and untold hours on the MS Usenet boards tracking down a solution for corrupt data retrieval with some extremely helpful folks. I cannot now recall or have in the interests of self-preservation suppressed how much we got back. (The creator in question is still alive, so I must have done something right.) Anyway, all these failings and more are the reason it made #2 on my list: http://builttobe.typepad.com/destroyed/2005/11/worst_software.html cheers, ab That “false floor” is a tremendous analogy and one reason among many for both the spa industry and cardiac ward upswings.

Just remember that when the little icon says your battery is out of power, you can often squeeze a few more minutes out of it. Good luck!
