The D/G Essay

Hey all,
Remember that essay? "Why D/G Matters and
Always Will?" Well, I've been trying to get that entire thing posted, because I think we really need a modern D/G manifesto on FIA... it's important and...

The entire folder containing it disappeared from a USB drive.
(cries)
(rages at the universe)

I'm going to see a computer expert I know on Monday. There may be a way to save it. For now... it may be a while before the rest of the essay comes out.

ETA: And if anybody's been reading *Taxi Driver*... guess what. That was on the same drive.

I think he actually should be able to. (staying OPTIMISTIC...) I've heard of other people having the same thing happen... um... other people who were dumb enough to keep using the drive even when it had a couple of problems... (shuffles feet) So I've heard of other people getting it fixed. I'm just not going to try to touch it until Monday!!!+

We're going to get through this. (said determinedly) It WILL all be rescued.

It goes in this morning... I'll let everybody know the news by the afternoon.

Update, if anybody's reading this:

I don't know anything yet. Sorry I can't say anything else, but OTOH, at least it isn't BAD news!!!

Anise @ Dec 10, 2013 12:47 pm


Yet another update: Computer Expert said that some files were easy to recover, the rest, not so much. And I don't know which ones yet... He was still working on it this afternoon, and I got the message too late to call back. I should know the final answer tomorrow.

Anise @ Dec 11, 2013 04:04 pm


Update 3.0: I still don't know. :( Well, at least it isn't horrible news YET.

Anise @ Dec 18, 2013 01:06 pm


I am STILL believing that it can be saved!

Rinney @ Dec 20, 2013 06:12 pm


Oh, I still believe. I DO... anyway, on Monday, it's being sent to "the lab" somewhere in CA. This may be at a top secret military base; I don't know. That's all the computer expert would say. ;)
