Quite true.  However, have a lok at the MX records for cleannorth.org, and
then lists.cleannorth.org

Also look at the networks the two MX hosts are on.

You'll find that it would take two networks to be down simultaneously for
both lists mail and cleannorth.org mail to be down simultaneously.

I wouldn't worry.

Here's my concern.  I do _not_ want to get phone calls about the network.  I
have a feeling Jim and Dave feel the same way.  We're simply not paid well
enough for that. :)

If someone needs to call one of us, we can be found, you just have to work
to do so.  I'd like to keep it that way.
