hi tedd,
if steve's idea is something doable.. why don't you consider setting
up the mysql data dir on some removable media (thumb/flash drive)?

so the boss can pull it off if he is going home. and it's easy to
detect this in code and display a message to system users, something
similar to that 'mysql server has gone away' message. (boss has gone
away) :)
