*HI ALL:
Recently I "lost" a very very important email, that I meant to Save....I
was beside myself because it was very important, and I just couldnt figure
out where I had saved it, and it wasn't showing up..... so I emailed a
very knowledgeable computer-pal of mine, Kevin, and asked if if there was
ANY WAY to get something BACK, if I had Deleted it! Well, within moments
of sending that frantic note, I did indeed FIND the 'lost' email! It was
saved after all, I just had totally forgotten WHERE IT WAS SAVED!!!!
When I wrote Kevin back, saying I had found it, and how stupid I felt
for becoming so frantic when I hadnt really deleted it....he replied, as
follows (I think it's a great reply!) .....

KEVIN'S REPLY :
re: losing important information on the computer.

There are two kinds of people using computers---
1.) Those that have lost very important information.
2.) Those that will.

The only person who backs up, and has safeguards in place against losing
important information,
is the one who already has.
