Dealing with Development House Disasters?

Skinnytie asks: "I was recently asked by the CEO of the company for which I work to find a resource from which to better understand what to do in the event of a disaster. 'I'm on it, Sir' was my response, and I ran back to my desk and started writing contingency plans and trying to imagine what to do if a meteorite strikes our co-lo facility. I quickly came te realize that there is far more that *could* happen (the CTO gets hit by bus, or the in-house server room gets abducted by aliens...you get the point) than I am even prepared to write plans for. I thought I'd hit the Slashdot audience up for some ideas/horror stories regarding avoiding, dealing with and getting past whatever disasters that have occurred at your development houses. Have at you!"
