   Hi! Björn,   
      
   On Wed, 18 Dec 13, you wrote to me:

   Smartie.  :)

   Yes, thanks muchly.  I don't know what happened here.  It may have just been a   
   local glitch but that's ancient history now.

   Same here, with the experimentation.  I've upped the "Stand-Off minutes" to 59   
   minutes now and it's so much better.  I'm tempted to make the two nodes   
   currently set un-dialable, to start polling them again.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.   
      
   ... I say we nuke the site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.
