Sorry to come in so late on this discussion. Our #3 son had surgery on Monday, I had to work Tuesday (at the camera shop), and I'm only just now finding a few minutes to read email.

The subscribers to the list can't arbitrarily decide what can and >can't be discussed on the list. The listmom and nannies may declare a discussion closed. Any member of the list can request that a thread be ended, but compliance is merely a matter of courtesy. I found much of the discussion enlightening, but then it seemed to settle into dogmatic positions that neither side is willing to change. I leave my TiBook on, running SETI@home in spare cycles, sleeping (or so I believe) at night, etc. There are good reasons for using sleep and equally good ones for shutting down. This debate has been going on as long as there have been personal computers. Make your own choice. Last word -- thread dead. Dan the listmom. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
