## RESTORING BACKUPS

Basically, you are going to have to do everything in reverse. I haven't found a good way to script this, 
largely because the process to pull the post down from Usenet and convert it back into a GPG is a bit convoluted.
Also, since the backup is the thing that you will do often, and a restore fairly rarely, I don't know that 
spending a lot of time on a restore script is really warranted. If there's a big demand, though, I will post up 
my notes on manually doing it so you can at least have a starting point.
