pages from cccd.edu to my home server at bixby.org.

Hopefully I've left web referrals in all the right places at www.cccd.edu to

Greg, this thinking comes from the continual suspicion of the availability of
'reliable' power supply. Given I, as others have suggested also, do not really
need to be on-site, it has been a common thought in Oz that many of us would
'shut down' our systems because of those concerns. It may be all a waste of
time, but I guess it is my job on the line if crap happens and I am
underprepared. Other than this I would never shut 3000 down, and the other good
thing we all know is that is never goes away by iteslf either. Slightly OT  but
that Sun engineer did not have the same things to say about her boxes. </plug
