Or even, use a UPS _and_ shut down the system properly _and_ use sync'd writes to the partition your database is on (or at least the partition your recovery logs are on).

PS, I hate this stupid SQL filter ... I can't tell you how many times I haven't even bothered to contribute an answer to this list because it was bounced by the stupid filter. I can't tell you how much I hate reading 4 line answers from people preceded by the 10+ lines of "forward this message, blah blah". I _can_ tell you that I'd rather see the spam, and filter it myself, than lose the intelligent contributions of other list members who forget to put 'sql' or 'query' in their message.
