Topic drift alert! We had a PhD candidate come in to Help Desk in  
tears(circa 1986). She was typing her dissertation on her PC and storing each  
chapter on a floppy then pinning to fridge with kitchen magnet.
They were sent off for recovery but only got a portion back. 
 
Some of the new rare earth magnets are so strong you can't break them  
apart.
