I could use some help thinking of some alternative acronyms for RAID.

Here is one I came up with that hints at the sentiment I am trying to
convey:

Real Arrogance about Impending Data loss.

Ok, it's far from perfect, a bit of a stretch - you see why I need help.  I
want something that indicates RAID isn't perfect, and relates to the
inevitability of Data loss without backups.

(Maybe somebody has a clever haiku too?)

I'm working on a presentation about open source backup software and in
particular a case study about Bacula saving my bacon.

I'm looking forward to some clever ones and I will certainly credit you if I
use them.

Thanks.
