“Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming,”

How about,

Switching off your lights is switching off your freedom, and leaving them on is a vote against communist dictators.

Making sure every light is on, including the lights in the closets.

We're going to use our lights to do a "wave" by time zones across the country. That's kind of cool.

Seriously, I'll be doing nothing different Saturday night. I'll leave my lights on to show my neighbors that I'm not buying Algore's hoax.

We will turn on every inside/outside light, ceiling fans, swim spa pumps (10KW ;-)!), dishwasher, washer, big screen TV, computers, microwave popcorn, and bathroom fans. If it was summer, I would turn on the AC max. I think I can pull at least 15KW. This should be enough to neutralize 14 greens and stimulate the energy economy too!

It is supposed to be 8:30 at your local time, whatever time zone you live in.

Keep the lights burning bright!!

I am going to turn on every appliance I have for the hour and if I am not blowing a breaker every 10 minutes than I am not doing my part.

I am also going to listen to Dennis Leary so I can make that list of all the politically incorrect things there and make sure I have and use all of them to.

I will end the hour with a Polish joke in memory of Ted Knight.

That pretty much sums it up for me.

Oh, I forgot the microwave!!! Popcorn for the kids while I’m baking the brownies. Also — probably have a load of dishes to do. Hopefully we won’t blow a fuse!! LOL

Either chicken fried pork chops on the stove or spicy marinated chicken over a charcoal grill. And beer.

I’ll turn on every light in the house, storage building and outside floodlights. Occasionally I’ll hit the remote on the truck to flash the lights and activate the panic alarm.
Flashing lights inside as well, also randomly. Hoping to piss off the neighbor who plays annoying rap/crap music at all hours of the day. Diversity is wonderful, right? /s

I’m going to smoke to baby back ribs. About 10 lbs. of pure carbon into the air to create dinner. And if it’s even close to being hot enough — the AC goes on. Suck on that Earth.
