Today I was lucky enough to get the "This disk is damaged" message
on a VERY important floppy (figures that I do not have a backup).
I tried to use Disk First Aid to fix it, but it did not work.  The
title of the floppy comes on the screen and then I get the dreaded
error message.  Is there a program somewhere out in netland that
is more dilligent about trying to repair a corrupt disk than
Disk First Aid?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Sigh, there is a rather
giant Excel spreadsheet on this one that I would really like to 
avoid inputing again...

Cheers,

Chris

p.s. I forgot the IPC number for Sumex.  Anyone know it offhand?
