I had forgotten that....that was one of the worst kicks in the stones ever....had just moved the site from Scout to independent...6 weeks into it, the server company had a work order to wipe one of their servers clean...it was the server below ours on the rack...and they wiped ours by accident...everything gone.

Learned some lessons..me and the server company...they changed their entire protocol because of that...and I started paying for daily backups
