Hello again Delores,
 RW> The latest book by Minette Walters 'The Dark Room' uses this technique
 DER> This is added to my ever-growing list of BTBR....
My BOLO (be on the look out) list is at 3 pages with a discouragingly small
number of crossed off entries!
 RW> I'm starting to look at the various options of tape and removable HDs
 RW> as a better way of backing up than 100+ diskettes.
 DER> Sorry to hear about your crash! :( They are so frustrating!  I just
 DER> bought a new tape backup system....QBackup....and really like it!  I
Yeah, I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get a backup system; just as
soon as I get my HD back from Maxtor and reinstall everything. Right now I've
just got minimal installs of everything that I absolutely need. Not much room
for storage or frills.
 DER> Meal Master database one too many times to live without a reliable
 DER> back-up system any longer!! :)
Unfortunately that is one of the big loses I'm afraid. My last MM backup was
over 6 months ago, so lots gone down the tubes there.  I'm going to get 
orton
Utilities and see if I can revive my little 250 mb that had MM and a few 
ther
unbacked up directories on it, otherwise it will be reformat or replace time.
Have you ever read any of John Straley's books? They are set in Alaska and he
does a great job with the ambiance and feel of Alaska, so you can see it in
your mind.  A lot of books could be set anywhere, but not Straley's, he 
eally
makes them Alaskan! But doesn't go so far overboard with detail that it
impedes the story. A lot of very poetic descriptions. Good characters and
decent plotting as well. He reminds me a lot of Tony Hillerman's books and
writing.
