			this is to Sam Webster but it does apply to others .
i lost all my contacts Emails , phone numbers , chassis /roll cage designs , technical drawings ,1000's photos of my airbrushing and jobs i have done over the last 8 plus years every thing is gone . 
they were all on my PC and it got water damaged when the roof to my shop leaked all over my desk printer and PC .
i now have a new PC and for what ever reason they could only save a hand full of things from my old one .
so email me at 
dkbairbrushing@conversent.net with all your info so i can start to replace what i list .
thanks

			Dave,you should consider using an automatic online backup service.Cheap,easy and effective way to store important data.Once a day,your information is automatically updated and saved offsite to a secure server. I learned the hard way as well...and the IRS has no sense of humor..

			this hole thing from the roof blowing off the building really sucks . 
i had hopes they could still transfer the files from my old pc to the new one but the guy tried and no good he could only get one file . 
so yes i have to look into saving info some were other than just on my PC .

			i have some one coming to the shop on sunday he said he would be able to get the crap from the old PC . 
i paid the guy from the PC repair place 125 to come out to the shop and a 100 dollars for him to try and get the old files out of the PC and he told me he could not get all of them . i pissed that money away !
