Is that 'check init' or 'hack init'?

<ifIWasAGoodCProgrammer>
        I might just alter shutdown so it took an
    additional argument to -r---- along the lines
    of   shutdown -r  [when-die] [when-resurrect]
</ifIWasAGoodCProgrammer>

    .....but I'm just a converted Windoze Luser and
amateur sysadmin, so you're getting beyond me
here.  If the OS is shut down, then the kernel's shut down,
right, and how's it gonna count seconds 'til Resurrection Day?
