YAFS (Yet another floppy story)

>[Storys of floppys being mutilated]

That reminds me of a friend that was working on a large project for
undergrad.  The network server's disk that had the project on it
died forever.  The good news was that she had a backup on a floppy.
The bad news was that the floppy was in her backpack and had been
bent to a right angle under some books.  I carefully bent the floppy
back into shape, and copied the project intact off of the disk klunking
around in the drive.

We both got a disk holder after that experience...
