You are starting *another* thread on this ???
Conduction band electrons are like a plasma, and will move anywhere an externally imposed field pushes them, even at 0K (bohr model, otherwise things get quantum mechanical, as reality does). They will impart slight vibrations to the atomic structure as they traverse the material, raising the thermal energy above your assumed ideal 0K.
Electrons which are in their ground state won't come out of it, they'll stay bound to the nucleus by a *VERY STRONG FORCE* , much stronger than Yoda's... and there's no way you can shake them out , if it's 0K, so no thermal energy in the material. Shine a laser on them, and you RAISE the energy of the system.
Gravity is kind of weak on electrons, btw.
Really, intuition does not really work at 0K, I have a feeling you are not in kansas anymore, Dorothy.

BTW, how about the mathematical resolution of the capacitor energy paradox ? Anyone actually *reads* the papers ?
