You know, I'm not entirely sure what the reasoning is. The invoke-rc.d manpage 
says "All access to the init scripts by Debian packages' maintainer scripts 
should be done through invoke-rc.d." But I guess that doesn't really apply to 
end-users.

Chances are it makes no difference at all. I'm just being argumentative. :D 
Hopefully someone else can explain why I've been using it instead. I can't.

Peace,
Brendon
