Just when it looked like utcsstat's memory problems were almost over,
the CPU seems to have died at about 0430 Sept. 18th.

UTCS management has stiffed us with a 16-hours-per-day, 5-days-per-week
repair contract, so utcsstat will likely be down until sometime Monday
at the earliest.

This cheesey contract means that if hardware fails early Friday evening,
utcsstat can be down for 64 hours before DEC even arrives,
typically without the right parts, tools or diagnostics.
Boy, am I tired of broken hardware...
