i think the point (for me anyway) is that i'm an admin, so my whole purpse in
life is to make sure things work for people.  without users i cease to exist.
without an internet connection i lose a lot of "users" (ok, none maybe, but i
have a web page that gets hits every once in a while *G*) and my whole purpose
in life is lost. :)
