I don't really care if someone got their files restored because they made a
big fuss.

That out of the way, I must say that I lost a file myself.  I was told that
Netcom couldn't restore it because it would take too long for them to find
which tape the file was on and then where the file was on the tape.  My
only reaction to that is that if they don't have their backup software
logging every file and its location, then they need to hire a new backup
administrator.

By the way.  I was told that they would restore the file if it was their
fault that it was deleted.  ?!?
