G'day David, and welcome to TiddlerHood! Although you may never need them, there's is nothing wrong with having just enough paranoia to create backups once in a while (at any moment you think: "man, it would really suck if what I'm about to do would screw up X hours worth of effort I've just put in).
I have my regular moments of: "hmmm, just when everything seems foolproof, I am about to step up as the latest posterboy for fools are us." Cheers !
