Oh you'd be surprised.  There was an article a while ago in Circuit Cellar 
magazine where the author (I think it was Steve Ciarcia himself) described 
the originas of his high electric bills as surprising...all those clock 
radios, microwave, dishwasher, TVs etc, etc. despite being 'off' still 
collectively drew a lot of current that addded up.  I have a friend who 
uses power strips to turn off *everything*.  He says it's the only 
solution these days.
