Given the fuzziness, I'll just take it as an exercise in wit:

  • "LOCKSS: Lots Of Copies Keep Stuff Safe." They'll figure out the science. But we lost all scientific knowledge, I don't want that to happen twice.

  • "Rub dry wood until it makes like sun." Hopefully the taste of good steak will get them going.

Speaking of copies, I keep meaning to write a LOCKSS plugin for LessWrong. This comment will be my note-to-self, or anyone else who wants to do it first.

For God's sake, if you want to remind yourself to do things, keep all your reminders in the same place. A reminder that you don't remember to look at is useless.

Lots of copies;)

Oh, yes, I've agreed with you about that for a long time. The grandparent comment wasn't actually my (only) reminder.
