True. Perhaps I should have mentioned I have mentioned the last
two lines of my init.m file are:

<<PacletManager`;
<<Utilities`CleanSlate`;

So, that CleanSlate is automatically loaded at the start of
every session. I've forced the PackletManager to load since I
found in earlier versions the PackletManager would load after
all of the items in init.m executed. I don't know if this is
still true for version 8.

Of course I still need to remember to load it again if I want to
do some side computations to be erased later from the session
rather than all of the computations in a session.
