Yes!  only 30 seconds, to the millisecond!

I'll look into that.

I noticed something in the strace man, that stated it would trace signals.  
Could I just trace the (SIGHUP) to pppd, and all children, and eliminate 
reading through over 65,000 lines of output?  I guess I could try to estimate 
the drop time (hopefully) within 10 minutes or so, but that would still 
produce over 10,000 lines.
