Before the crash

Here’s a message l just received from my previous webhost, netbunch.com:

We are sorry to inform you that We had 16 servers completely wiped clean of all data. We are working with FBI and other Law enforcement officials at the present time.

At this point all we can do is recreate your account and give you 1 month of credit for the loss. If any data is recoverable, we will restore it.

Interestingly, I switched to Dreamhost a couple of months ago. All the websites I maintain with the exception of UDCT99.org had been switched over and the data had been backed up.

My classmates are going to hate me for this!

    I had a backup (March) on my laptop. But the hard disk crashed while in India this May. So yes, backup-less.
