Eh, not for the dirt-cheap prices that Hasweb charges. Besides, pulling a backup is a pain. An up-to-date backup of your system is reasonable to expect; asking them to pull a specific date, not as much.
Anyway, I’ve not got a nightly perl script that handles it for me. I still need to back up my SVN repository to S3 — my Linux machine doesn’t relay mail properly, so if my RAID array failed I wouldn’t necessarily know about it until it was too late — but for now it’s fine.

$15!? Seems to me that kind of service should be free-ish.

Is there a way to interrogate Tom’s “manifest destiny” program without being accused of anti-Tomism? No, I suspect there isn’t.

Your key role in framing our nation’s failed policies in the Middle-East is well-documented.
I’m glad someone’s finally got the guts to say it to your face.
