(I am joining this in mid-conversation, so forgive me if I'm being
redundant.) 
Just a note: daemons were so named because they sleep (in a cave ;-),
get interrupted, and wake up (to do something). Omnipotence is not
relevant; the sleep-and-wake-up-to-do-something _is_.

Oddly, this reminds me of afternoon naps! 'chort-zan'? <grin><grin>
