Saw this somewhere on Ravelry today and it finally explains clearly why I get choked up and teary eyed sometimes reading about complete strangers and their misfortune.

For #13 on my list which is organizing photos, there was a question of what kind of “storage” to use for digital photos. External hard drives fail. Media fails or gets scratched. So what then?

Not fond of making them so just made myself make a whole bunch so that I don’t have to for a while… kept going til I ran out of […]
