Learned-the-hard-way rule:

Never EVER trust an omz as your only source of backup, *particularly* if
it is large and your only source of data! ALWAYS make a copy of your
original data files. I have a batch file that copies them to another
directory - I ALWAYS (well, almost :-) do that when doing data ops.

Bill? Bill... why, Bill of course :-). Be careful, though - if we *all* 
billed for our beta testing, they'd be broke by now.
