Let me take this opportunity to official state how great God is.
Scenario :-
Harddrive in critical application server goes bum. Wont boot, cant see files when you put it in another machine. Last valid backup Jan 2004. I gave up. Then I gave up the problem to God in prayer. Well thru God's guidance and mercy , the data was salvavged from the broken harddrive, restored to another machine, and the software techs for the application were able to recessitate it.
Moral of the story.... when all seems lost... go to God!
