Maybe I'm missing something but doesn't "Backup" imply that you are making a copy of data and that this is not the only instance of the data?
To give an example for the benefit of Mr. Colotti: I might take a photo with my camera and the resulting picture may only be on my camera. If I copy the picture to a backup and if this backup is later deleted, my only pain will be that I need to backup the picture again; I won't actually loose any data.
How could somebody in the industry not understand the difference? How could somebody in the industry who doesn't understand the difference be so stupid as to come out with a public rant which just serves to prove his stupidity and lack of suitability for the job he is in?
