Re: I've mentioned it before...
I got downright paranoid about the use of BEGIN TRANSACTION ; SELECT * INTO table_backup ... when my job was to fix data in the production database.
One day I had a conversation with my sysadmin along the following lines:
"If you did not have to get involved, it did not happen, correct?"
"Yep, that's right."
Could have had it more than once...
