Papaul
As part of my job I review IT programs at banks. No matter how well a contingency plan is laid out or how well the back up plan is developed things can and do go wrong that the PLAN has not taken into account. For this scenerio lets give Paul 100% credibility that what happened really happened the roof came down. Lets think about that, do you honestly think the website firm had that as part of the contingency plan?
I know you are rolling the dice on this stock and are relying on it to get your head above water, but when Paul put the counter up do you think he ever considered that the weather would do what it is doing? I'd guess that it was not part of the equation.
Also, lets give the website developer some credit and hopefully they are not complete morons and do have some type of backup plan in place. However, even if they have all of XMDC's website info backed up the problem was the roof came down and the servers were flooded. If the servers were flooded I'd guess they are shot, so its basically a matter of finding a new location and starting the entire hardware system from scratch and rebuilding everything from the ground floor up. It can be done, but not overnight.
So relax and give them a chance to recover from a NATURAL disaster.
