"dead services" aren't necessarily permanently dead.  They are really 
just currently unresponsive.

Is there a way to get the pinger to record how long a service has been 
dead?  If it has been down for, say, months then the chances of it 
coming back tomorrow are probably small.  OTOH if it has only been down 
since yesterday, it may recover soon.
