If you are an Orthodox Jew, you observe the Sabbath and don't do any work. Some from the USA will recall that Al Gore sometimes walked home with Joe Leiberman and turn his lights on for him on Friday nights (Sabbath is from sundown to sundown starting Friday night). By extension, I suppose these folks are not having their machines do any business for them on the Sabbath. Chill out John, it's a day of rest. You can always order on Sunday... Regards, Bob S.
