I had dinner with the chief at Henson/A&M last night and when I mentioned the idea of turning gear off, he nearly choked on his food, and proceeded to regale us with stories of how "every time the power goes off I end up working twice as long to get everything working again" and/or "Why would you turn it off? What's the matter with you?"

But you knew that.
