Backup Central

Gee, it's almost 5:00pm (Eastern Time, USA), and I just found this out? (Original Message below.)

I suggest the blessing, "May Amanda always serve you well."

(Amanda got me back a host.key that I botched the other day. The cert would have been useless
without it. After receiving the cert from the authority, I had done a `cp host.cert host.key >
host.pem` instead of `cat host.cert host.key > host.pem`. My brain thought it knew where it was
going, but my fingers found the more traveled command. Ten minutes later, Amanda had it back for me.)

Turns out March 31 is "World Backup Day":

Not quite sure what kind of 'blessing' one bestows on others today: "May you
always have a redundant copy of your data!" (?)

Yes, you should back up your world. In case some Vogons decide to build
a bypass through it, you can get it back.
