Katrina is heavy on my mind. I can't pick up 6 filing cabinets much less
the binders on the shelves and run. Office Depot has their 200 GB
external hard drives on sale this week. What I am contemplating doing is
to put a copy of everything in the filing cabinets and binders onto one
of them. I might lose my originals but I could have a copy. They're
small, light, and would be easy to pick up on the way out the door in
the event of next Katrina or her counterpart. Wish I could do the same
with the shelves of irreplacable books that are on the shelves. Any
suggestions other than storing them in waterproof containers in the attic?
