To add specifics to the below:
You can:
screen /usr/local/script-of-some-sort
1. (to detach from the 'screen' without stopping what it is doing: hold down the (control) button and press A then D.)
2. Whenever you want to resume the screen, type: screen -r
Repeat steps 1 and 2 as often as you'd like.

Justin,
Yes, that would be a *perfect* example of how you can use screen.
