   If BinkD runs only on your BBS machine and that machine has a single   
   processor, meaning not dual- or quad-core, then something else is wrong on   
   both our systems.  For the time being, we  could call it The Ghost in   
   the Machine.  That said, I made the change and have noticed no sleepiness on   
   the part of D'Bridge or BinkD.  Time marches on.
