First of all, for 24/7 operation we'd need to have 9 fully qualified
system administrators ( for every 8h timeslot with redundancy, leave/
sick coverage, etc) (payroll costs ~100,000$ each).

India (payroll costs ~1000$ each).

Hee.
On a serious note, though, if a backup site is beeing looked at, we
might want to talk to the DirectNIC people in New Orleans...
