I asked a battery-man here about that a couple of years ago, but I am confused
by his answers. Yes batteries do have "memory", but he said that letting
a battery sit around in a discharged state, or to use them in a nearly
discharged state was the worst thing, so he recommended faithfully keeping them
charged up.
	I would appreciate hearing a less confused answer on this than my
memory provides - perhaps I've been running discharged too long.
