A minor annoyance with my PowerBook - waking up from sleep by lifting the screen

I love my PowerBook to death, and I don't really know why I am posting this, but whatever. I noticed that when I close the screen of my PowerBook to sleep it, and then when I want to use it again, so I press the release button to open the computer, I must immediately lift the screen because if I have it sit for 2 seconds after I release it, the computer wakes up, then goes back to sleep and wakes up again and the screen is off but the computer is on and it's bleh. The sensor for "is the screen open or closed" must be really close to the bottom so when the screen is in the position it is in after you pop the release, it's sitting on the sensor area and the computer just gets confused.

Anybody else experience this on their PowerBook? Maybe MacBook Pro classic too?
