Humpday Humor: IRS Unaware of File Back-Up Services


Email exchanges for at least seven IRS employees are lost because of habitual computer crashes at the agency.  To investigate the unfortunate situation the U.S. has spent $10,000,000.

The money quote from the news item:

IRS technicians went to great lengths trying to recover data from Lerner's computer in 2011.  Technicians said they sent the computer to a forensic lab run by the agency's criminal investigations unit. But to no avail.

Message to the IRS: File back-up services exist.
