Seems that would be a lot of extra effort, entirely on my part. No, clearly the smart thing to do here is simply to wait for one of us to die.
Respect my lack of authority.
"Temperatures tied a record high of 97 degrees Fahrenheit in Denver on Sunday afternoon, while a winter storm watch was in effect for the metro area. With forecasters predicting a low of 33 degrees on Monday night, this could be a record-setting temperature drop".

Well, I just accidentally deleted 10 GB of files; apparently without a chance of recovery (does anyone have a recommendation for a proven undelete program? I have yet to find one)...
I'm pretty sure half the stuff was garbage anyway, but there probably were a good three dozen PDFs that I surely must have created/saved for a good reason and for the most part I have no clue what they contained. Not knowing is probably the most unsettling part of this whole affair.

As always, don't keep writing to the volume you want to recover data from, or you'll lessen your chances of success.

Thanks, I'll try them out.
Could kick myself -- thought I was highlighting a file, pressed shift-delete and for some reason the file wasn't highlighted but rather the folder the file was in. *poof* Gone. Idiot me then pressed ctrl-z, which resulted in the last file I had just moved out of that folder to be moved back -- and the folder name I just deleted to be recreated. At that point there was no way to recover the old folder, I guess.
Oh well.
