I also want to make a general comment.... for the record. If I let patches slip consistently past 24 hours my backlog is unmanageable. Even with aggressively applying things quickly I'm right now at 70-75. If I do not do what I am doing, then it's in the 100-150 range. So I am at the point where I often must move forward with patches that I think I personally can verify and vet on my own.
