half right

You're half right. The empty fridge will cool off faster than one filled with room temp. contents. Once the contents of the fridge are cold they will not release their cool as quickly as the air that surrounds them. Therefore a fully stocked fridge, once cooled, will maintain it's lower temp longer than an empty fridge.
