Yeah, I ran ext2 in production a ton. I actually don't remember ever losing and subsequently finding anything in lost+found; in fact, almost every single one of my fsck or fsck -y were successful.... EXCEPT

One time on my personal machine, someone talk bombed me once, and I somehow had to not only recover the superblock from about the 8th backup location (yeah, the first 7 or so failed), but I also had to manually recover some files based on the inode data. But it worked!
