OMG!!!  Seriously?

The software and services are *UNAVAILABLE* - therefore you have
*DOWNTIME*.  WTF is so difficult to understand about that?

$clueless_moreon: "Yeah, I rebooted the server, but it just because I
wanted too, not because anything was broken.  Therefore we didn't
actually have downtime, so our uptime wasn't affected."
Kurt: "You are sooooo fired."
