The interesting difference to the original sabbath is that this one would change not just what work we do on that day, but what recreation we undertake. Must the DS be a weekend day? This has got me thinking about what a midweek DS might do for my agency. Would a day away from email kill us? On the family front, I know it would be an easy sell with the kids. "Hey kids, every Sunday is going to be DS day, OK?" I'm sure I'd get 100% agreement. Not my problem if they think I mean Nintendo... Nice idea Bill and one worth trying.
