Oh, now this is interesting: now that daylight has gone, and the room's a 
little darker, I can see that the LED is on brightly when the value is 1. 
When the value is 0, it's noticeably dimmer, but not completely off.

Here, I'm way out of my depth (I'm a software person)...I double-checked 
the resistor, and it's the correct "size" (220 ohm).

I remember reading in the book that the BBB is a little "fussy" about 
things getting connected an disconnected. Is it good practice to do a 
shutdown before I start moving wires around for testing?

Thanks..
