"Backups are for wimps. Real men upload their data to an FTP site and
have everyone else mirror it."

      --Linus Torvalds

A simple solution:

• Zip up all your files
• Encrypt with GPG/PGP
• Rename to "Olsen Twins Nude - XXX.zip"
• Upload on Kazaa
• You'll easily be able to find thousands of copies of your data if you ever need it.

Use Microsoft Word to print out all your MP3s, then store them in a
3-ring binder. If you ever lose your digital copy, you can use text
recognition to restore your MP3s from the paper backup.

Let's just hope there isn't a fire or a flood.
