Torture testing Panasonic plasmas for burn in

Has anyone torture tested any of the recent Panasonic plasmas for burn in from gaming?  Torture meaning 4-8 consecutive hours of 360/Wii/PS3 gaming with status bars.  When you were done, was there any burn in and did you need to white wash your screen?

I left the grey sidebars 4:3 format on over night a few times. It ISNT the issue to worry about, the only issue is the side bars (or letterbox bars) causing uneven brightness over time. I wonder though if there is not some way to play a movie in inverse color so the dark is bright and black is white and let it play that way to even it up.
