We agree on most things, but I'm afraid not on this one. Good online storage is
relatively cheap ($60/yr), and it has the *substantial* added benefit of being
offsite and automatic. For someone who lacks the discipline to do frequent
backups, especially for someone who makes no provision whatsoever for offsite
backups, there isn't a better solution. IMO.

So, let's please just agree to disagree. I suspect our fellow subscribers have
had enough.
