How is this possible? The Adminstrator trusted the hosting supplier with the backup and restoration of the board and the supplier had a key server crash which held the backups, and I believe there was a cascade of corruption as a result. If the Administraor had not had an old hard copy on DVD (dated May 2010) they would be completely gone and had to rebuild from scratch.
Don't take your internet forum content for granted.

That would be a right pain Glen. I run twin external backups with TimeMachine doing its stuff at all times.
