Just remembered another one :)

I used to work at Macquarie Uni as an operator back in 91.  If I had a
dollar for the number of times students came to me, desperate because their
thesis or assignment was on a floppy disk that couldn't be read anymore, I
would have been earning a decent salary :)  So many people kept only one
floppy disk.  Obviously these days with HD and networks, people don't use
floppies so much, but it still happens ocassionally.  Moral - never have the
only copy of something on only one floppy disk.
