    At least two of us are lucky. I can't reproduce the crashes "anymore"
    either. I am up to 2 days now, was up to 3 or 4 before I booted
    2.4.23 for a while to see if I could make that kernel crash, which I
    couldn't. I will see how long I can go, since 5 days or so seems to
    be the top uptime.
