Took me a while to figure out what sudo was complaining about - my shutdown
line includes a 15 second delay  /sbin/shutdown -h 15 needed to be t=15.
Once I solved that, it quit complaining.

I'd though to simply take advantage of the already available line for the
wheel group being allowed to execute any command w/o a pw but thought
thrice about it and went the individual command route. Will be testing
quite soon now that I've got the sleep command working.
