I'm so sorry to hear that. I know the feeling -- has happened to me a number of times. I've learned to copy my text periodically as I type, if it's to be anything of any length. We'll look forward to your next post.

I know the feeling also. I've learned to create my posts in a notepad or wordpad. Though I don't save my work occasionally...I know I should.

Creating my posts in note- or wordpads was a habit I developted back in the days when dial-up connections were the norm. And of course, so was getting disconnected, or as we used to call it... getting "booted."

I hope you didn't "lose your religion." When something really angers my mum, she will blurt out, "it was enough to make me lose my religion!"
