Thanks!  I didn't know about that place to look.  Unfortunately there  
is nothing useful there either.

There is only a file called minfree dated from January.
minfree is a text file containing
  2048

Is there some setting I should set so that in future crashes will be  
dumped there?

Let me also add that the system is on an APC UPS and another machine  
that is on the same UPS logs no UPS events since the thunderstorms  
that hit the area on Friday.
