Postgresql Hackers,

Just a quick but heartfelt "Thank You!" to all of you who make 
postgresql as sturdy as it is. Noon today, our datacenter provider 
suffered an, um, interruption in their uninterruptable redundant power 
supply systems. Power was restored seconds later, and this is what the 
postmaster had to say about it:

	LOG:  database system was interrupted at 2004-10-08 11:55:47 EDT
	FATAL:  the database system is starting up
	LOG:  checkpoint record is at 1C/2A4CF040
	LOG:  redo record is at 1C/2A4CF040; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown 
FALSE
	LOG:  next transaction ID: 16776013; next OID: 3686077
	LOG:  database system was not properly shut down; automatic recovery 
in progress
	LOG:  redo starts at 1C/2A4CF080
	LOG:  record with zero length at 1C/2A521034
	LOG:  redo done at 1C/2A521010
	FATAL:  the database system is starting up
	FATAL:  the database system is starting up
	LOG:  database system is ready

We were back online within minutes of the interruption w/o any data 
loss.

So, I raise my glass to you! Thank you!
