Oh, you want one of those, I can switch it back on for a bit.

linuxmafia:/var/lib/mailman/bin# /etc/init.d/apache2 start
Starting web server: apache2 htcacheclean.

Yay for uptime -- but I don't make a festish out of it, and also most
winters I have at least one brief power outage during a storm much like
the current one.
