[Barry Von Ahsen]

A client I work with reboots their FreeBSD server daily.  They say it's 
so they can make sure their init scripts continue to work, but it seems 
a little excessive to me (especially since I do most of the sysadmin on 
the box)

12:01PM  up  6:30, 1 user, load averages: 0.02, 0.01, 0.00

from that one (623258 hits last month)
