Followup: Saab won't start

I got some excellent suggestions of things to check for my lack of electrical power issue, but still have the same problem: no click from the keys, no running lights, no interior lights, etc. If I leave the key on, eventually (but this is getting longer) the lights come on and it starts easily. I've tried jumpstarting, cleaning ground and battery connections. Is this symptomatic of something wrong with the alternator, or voltage regulator? The ignition switch was replaced about a year ago; but I think the wiring to the interior lights, running lights, etc. bypasses the ignition switch. No recent electrical work; this problem developed gggrrraaaddduuuaaalllyyy. First happened once a month, then once a week, etc. Any other suggestions? I will try reseating fuses.
