MBP retina keeps restarting when I put it to sleep

Question

I bought a 15" MBP retina in Oct 2012 and it has begun restarting itself daily if not more frequently as of about 3 weeks ago.  I took it into an apple store and they did a hardware check (no probs found) and then did an erase and reinstall of the OS (mountain lion).  For a few days it was okay, but now it is starting to happen again.  Interesting observation - when I brought it in they gave me a loaner (part of the joint venture program they recently started).  The loaner was a regular MBP (i.e. non retina and regular hard drive).  They copied all the data over from my MPBr onto the loaner machine and I wound up using it for a week before getting my MBPr back.  Interestingly, I didn&#x27;t have one restart during that time.  When I got my MBPr back they again copied the data from the loaner back to the MBPr and voila I am having the problem again after a few days.  I am running office 2008 (which for some reason I suspect is the culprit).  I use safari primarily and firefox sometimes.  I usually have a bunch of applications running but it&#x27;s got 8GB ram and a 500 GB SSD with 70GB of free space on it, so I can&#x27;t see a problem with that.  Any ideas as to the problem, or more importantly as to a solution?

Okay, I think I have figured out the problem - a program called Edrawings viewer is causing a GPU panic or whatever.  It is pretty consistent but I have to try putting the computer to sleep and waking it when the program is not running and see if it still restarts.
