Re redundancy; external hard drives are great - but they're not Dropbox or any other online storage. If your house burns down, the hard drive will melt as well. Once you've twiddled with a league for seven years you want some more security.

To be REALLY sure, I should stash a second USB stick with a friend. I mean, what's the chance that both our houses burn down AND Dropbox goes out of business?
Westy...Taking the "Scout Motto" to new extremes. With this DEFCON 5 level of disaster preparedness, I doubt you'll ever lose your beloved raccoons to a natural or unnatural disaster. I get why you do it though. Losing the league would be absolutely crushing after this much work.
