:)  congrats.

BTW: I don't think I posted this here yet:

I'm the sysadmin for BBLISA, and had to reboot the server a few months ago.
At the time, "uptime" reported:

  1:02pm  up 236 days, 17:53,  1 user,  load average: 0.09, 0.18, 0.20

However, there is a "bug" in the Linux kernel which wraps the uptime
counter after 400-something days.  Here's the information from the root
partition superblock. ;)

Filesystem UUID:          5bdddb0e-1213-11d4-9f43-00400550fefc
Filesystem magic number:  0xEF53
Filesystem OS type:       Linux
Last mount time:          Tue Aug 15 17:40:11 2000
Last write time:          Mon Aug 19 13:01:00 2002
Last checked:             Tue Aug 15 17:40:08 2000
Check interval:           15552000 (6 months)
Next check after:         Sun Feb 11 16:40:08 2001

So 2 years and almost 4 days of straight uptime...  <sigh>
