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 <cough> 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.
