I humbly apologize to anyone who thought I was calling them a troll, 
especially Michael, who's advice is always "spot on".
The nature of all the posts I have ever seen "Michael Adams" post have 
never been anything approaching "trolls".

I -KNOW-  (and have felt the pain personally) about loss of data for 
failing to back up, and was not my intent to make light of the data loss 
someone may suffer by failing to back everything up in multiple 
geographic and disks locations.
It was just such a universal truth that I did not want to snip that line.
