Thank you, John <all>...for an interesting & informative thread.
I'm going to begin shutting down when I'm through for the day, and
sleeping when I'm inactive. I used to do this ALL the time, then for
whatever reason, I stopped doing it about a year ago.
Thanks for the reminder to protect my mac AND conserve energy.
