5urning off unneeded lights and closing doors wearing sweaters etc was once just part of good old thriftiness. Throwing Money away is still foolish.

It's one thing to say "throwing money away is foolish." Each has to decide what that is for themselves.

It's another thing to pretend that we have to "save the environment ...etc.etc.... sustainable ... etc...B.S."

It’s simply unfortunate that the time of March 29th for ‘earth hour’ conflicts with Science and Engineering Achievement Day when we turn on everything electrical and gas powered that we can and celebrate all that good things that energy has wrought us. (It’s also the day when I conduct my annual electrical stress test.)

Silly “observances” like this indicate just how many supposed adults never mentally left grade school.

Even in the most conservative of states, one can depend upon the cities for nonsense.

I saved and invested all my working life, so that in retirement I could be comfortable. That means it's as cool as I want it to be in my house in the summer and as warm as I want to be in the winter. The bills come and I pay them.

No damn'd green weenie is going to tell me to "conserve" energy, for the planet.
