I'm just getting around to reading the article someone cited here:

  
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/results-mainframe-application-modernization-migration-ross-mauri/

I heard that "8 9s" claim go by before, but I didn't pay much attention.  But 
in the article it says that equates to 0.3 sec of downtime per year, and I 
pause.

Does "down time" not include IPL, then?  When you IPL, doesn't that count as 
"down"?  Because if it doesn't, I don't see what use that measure is.  Or does 
no one IPL any more?

/* Even the most marginal NBA player is an absurdly better athlete than an 
ordinary person.  When basketball people say that Grant Long can't shoot, can't 
pass, can't dribble, what they mean is:  He can shoot, pass and dribble better 
than you, better than anybody you know, better than all but a few hundred 
people in the world.  -from _Why the NBA Isn't As Offensive As You Think_ by
