Is codinghorror really mission critical? He will restore from some other backups. Downtime on a blog is not that big a deal other than people like to hate on Jeff Atwood. Now if he lost customer credit card records or something like that, then it would be warranted.

Doesn't Jeff derive a significant portion of his personal income from the site? If so, I'd say mission critical is a good way to describe it.

If codinghorror somehow allows Jeff to live without working then I would say it is pretty mission critical. Mission critical doesn't mean the Earth will blow up or something like that.
