I don't sleep much per night so whenever I go to sleep it's only for a few hours and I'm so used to keeping my computer on all the time where it doesn't even cross my mind to turn it off. I know, it's horrible. I'm going to make a little note for myself on a Post-It that says "I'm tired too, turn me off." I am HORRIBLE at turning my computer off before I go to sleep.

I work at a large university hospital and am disappointed to see the amount of energy that is wasted on a daily basis. I am espically annoyed with the computers that are left on after people have left their desks. What purpose does it serve? I have decided I am going to pass out postcard-type reminders to shut your workspace down when you're down for the evening! Great reminder!
