[Nolug] This is why...

crotchety old geezers insist upon off-site, *off-line* backups.
rsync to a neighboring machine just does not cut it...

     "Some have asked whether or not we had back-ups. Yes, we
     dutifully backed up our servers every day. Unfortunately,
     we backed up the servers between our two servers.

     "The hacker took out both servers, destroying our ability to
     use one or the other back-up to remedy the situation."
