Thanks for the very quick response Zed. Setting up montoring makes  
perfect sense... I think I was so embedded in trying to figure things  
out it didn't cross my mind at all.

However, here's my next question - maybe I'm just not understanding  
it properly, but I don't see the monit(or) script you mention in the / 
examples dir of the mongrel-0.3.13.4 gem. There is  
mongrel_simple_ctrl.rb and mongrel_simple_service.rb, but I'm not  
sure that those are what you meant.

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

And as other people have mentioned Zed....thanks so much for all the  
hard work you're putting into this!
