I hardly ever lose data. I don't alias rm or cp or mv or anything else, I'm just good at typing what I mean. But on the rare occasions that I do lose data, it's almost always because I overwrite a file inside an application or something like that, which aliasing commands wouldn't help with. I think the technology under discussion here does preserve overwritten data and would help. Matt, backing up as he types this.
