retreiving data

2008-08-20T09:52:17Z

One of our webservers (archive.csa.iisc.ernet.in) crashed recently and
we don't have a back up of the data. We were wondering if Google can
retrieve this data from its cached pages, and send it to us? It will
be great if there is such a service available from Google.

Thanks in advance,

I am very new to this "Google" ranking thing but it looks pretty scary
to me.

I seem to have committed two sins according to the moral code of

on our site.

Remove URLs tool, it is also removed from the list of pages that are
