Very interesting Tom.  Question though, if I run $ w I get:

 5:32pm  up 31 days, 23:47,  6 users,  load average: 0.03, 0.02, 0.00
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU  WHAT
chris    pts/0    -                 5Jul03 17days  0.00s   ?     -
chris    pts/2    -                 5:32pm  0.00s  0.05s  0.01s  w

Only two entries for me are shown, however, 6 users are reported as with $

Whats the difference?  I notice you uptime shows 5 users and 5 are reported 
with 'w'.
