Interesting Data Backup System

Did you notice this from Keillor's Almanac?

Richard Ford writes out almost everything in longhand, with a Bic pen. Before he started to write The Lay of the Land, he spent six months filling a three-ring binder with notes, placing his notes in sections marked "realty" or "Frank" or "New Jersey." And he keeps all his notes and manuscripts in the freezer, so that if the house burns down, he might not lose all his work.
