So, does this make this a Day 11, or Day 20?

Yesterday, we had equipment failure (a switch, which is a device that never fails [1]). Today, a hacked server where root has been compromised (a sooperseekrit message to pint@dosnet.info [2]: some lame script kiddie left your shv5 rootkit lying around where anyone, like me, could download it and examine it—you might want to be more careful about who uses your code).

Sigh.

Day 10s [3] are supposed to be, you know, ten days apart?
