Which brings up the question of where to store the keys. Obviously not
with the encrypted data on the webhost. And if we're backing up for DR
(hurricanes were mentioned), obviously don't store your only set of keys
on the source host.

Store the keys on another webhost? On a USB key locked in a
safety-deposit box somewhere in Iowa?
