It begs the question, "is it a serious relationship if you know one another's root passwords?" I know a lady [and we'll call her that because I'm OF (Old Fashioned? Old Fart?) enough to think they should all deserve high respect] who I consider something of a geek (recently contacted me via email to discuss whether she should try setting their webserver up as an "in house" project or leasing one "out there") .... Anyway, the other day I zapped off an email to her and got it back real soon with some error indicating (incidentally enough) that MySQL wasn't behaving and the mail wouldn't be deliverable as a result. So I called the company she works for 3 states away and mentioned that, in case they were curious and didn't know already, their email server was crying out for attention. Some time later I saw her posting on a forum we both frequent, and asked about the server as an aside to the conversation. "It was only down about *sheesh* 12 hours", she says. As a result of that statement I now believe that she's either the webmaster or has moved to marketing/middle management.... KDK
