    Hazaa!  You're right, bud- I didn't have that.

    I'd seen it report to the syslog about "byte 0f93 changed from 21 to
22" or something, but that's not terribly useful.  So I guess I'll keep
using the service, and just hope that these features will give me some
'heads-up' time before the next one dies.

    Thanks!
