 	It has one great use, and two minor ones. If my ssh 
connection to beartooth.info (b.i) goes down, I can email my 
contact at the host from the local, and hear back what's wrong 
and when it'll likely be fixed.

 	Also, since I run Alpine in part *because* it resists 
pix, I can forward any pic I do want to look at there, take a 
look on a browser, and be done with it.

 	Finally, it makes a backup for friends & family to reach 
me if I'm not responding to messages sent to b.i.
