US military email hub in Heidelberg Germany out for most of a day.
Reason for outage was operator it the read only button on the disk drive
cabinet with his knee when he leaned up against it.
This one is my favorite but did not happen to me personally.
Over 3 million dollars worth of destroyed equipment in Communications Center in
Korea when someone asked "what does this lever by the door do?" as the pulled
it. The lever pulls the pins of 24 thermite grenades positioned over the
equipment in case the position is being overrun by N. Korean forces.

Subject: 1 minutes: best downtime story
Hey all -
I'm writing a paper about top causes of downtime. As one component of
research, I'd like to get some input from you!
One minute, two sentences. First sentence: describe what went down.
Second sentence: describe why. (I have to categorize all of these.) Everyone
should have at least one downtime story so I'm hoping for a lot of feedback!
Answer about any technology - database, operating system, etc.
Thanks!
-Jeremy
