To idle or not to idle---diesel truck question 200

Someone asked me this morning about leaving diesel trucks idling, or shutting the engine off, and the relative fuel consumption and cost benefits of one approach versus the other. I think they were primarily intersted in light and medium trucks, as opposed to big rigs. Does anyone know of a web site where I can find a detailed discussion of this issue?
