Whoohoo! The World Wrestling Federation is sponsoring this! Count me in!

Duh they will shut down coal fired plants and kill the trees!

They’ve been hyping this thing on radio and TV ads for two weeks now. This is very current.

That's all well and good, but you posted a link to a story about last year's event. I'm still trying to figure out when this year's is so I can light up some tires in the backyard.

No clue what Earth hour is or wishes to accomplish, but here's a pink horse on Mars:

“The crew on the space shuttle will be able to see my house ...”

Y’all are cracking me up.

Excellent goal.

Saturday is the 28th; not 29th.

Not me, I'll turn every light on, if I remember.

I'll meet them half way. If Obama will schedule another press conference at that time, I'll turn off the television.

This will drive my lib neighbors up the wall....

A noble goal in itself. I intend to measure my home's peak electric load during "earth hour". I will bet that I'm not the only one in the neighborhood doing so!

They were hyping it at work this week. I always do the opposite of what the left wants, and this will be no different.

Re #34

LOL!!!

I can turn on all five amps as well to celebrate. They draw some power.

Earth Hour - What a stupid concept!
In my area, 90% of the electricity is generated water - hydroelectricity...Hello lefties! spinning turbines - it's free!
What are they going to do? Save it all up in a giant battery farm?

Beam me to Planet Gore !

[wally-balls]

I’m doin’ it too. But I’ll see your hour and raise you two hours
