Well that was stupid of you to do.  You've spent 12 years in programming 
and you don't back up anything?  That's dumb.  If my shell account were 
deleted tomorrow I could upload everything I need to go back online 
immediately.  And as for irreplaceable files, I'd never keep such things 
on a computer I don't have direct control of.  

: At this point, all I can figure is that either:
:   1. The people at NETCOM are incompetent
:   2. They don't give a damn about customer satisfaction

Or 3. It's not worth it to Netcom or any other Internet provider to give 
you all kinds of customer service for your $17.50 a month.  You get what 
you pay for.  Period.
