I missed that earlier..If you're spending 15 hours a day (ie. 75 hours 
a week) doing sysadmin, there's something wrong there.

You either need more people, more automation, more stability, 
and/or less quickfixes.

You're never going to be able to absorb all the information you 
REALLY need, if you actually have 15 hours of work to do every 
day.  Which gets us back to where we started (gzipped/bzipped 
tarball with 'all' sources).  You should be able to spare enough time 
on a project to gather the necessary knowledge and materials 
before you start it.

(Unlike me, who had to return to Home Depot 3 times for little bags 
of concrete, because I can't figure out square footage.. :)
