Being the person who reported this to the list, I'm trying to crawl under
my keyboard to hide as I recall the cables I've tripped on in server
rooms and ponder the hot water I may have put some poor, budding geek
into when they may have been simply trying to go the extra mile for their
client.

Little blood. Minor foul. Though we all love our SLUG site, it's not
like they took down all of ebay, or slashdot, or an AT&T cross-continental
backbone. If the learning opportunity is fully realized, we just may all
end up ahead on the deal.

And, Russ, thanks for the professional follow-up, and hosting the site.

Greg
