[Cialug] Keeping it up

[Claus]

The only uptime that really counts is the uptime in regards to 
availiability.  That wasn't given during your move so the 303 days don't 
mean nothing.  I know, I'm brutal.

Hey, I have servers reaching easely 300 days of uptime but that just 
shows that I'm way behind upgrading the OS.  So it's nothing to brag about.
