will be sitting at home during that hour with all the lights on, on my cellphone calling the radio stations requesting Trace Atkins song, "Every Light In The House Is On" in honor of this special occasion. I will also be praying for the man who is in charge of climate control to send a thunderstorm thru downtown Nashville with a vivid lightning display.

[Not A Snowbird]

When is “dark hour”?

[mirkwood]

I will be tweaking my weather machine to focus on dc.

What???

What is this about? What newspapers?

Good God.

[Fintan]

"What are you going to be doing during the hour of dark?"

Lighting my farts.

[Bryanw92]

I have a 1983 Monte Carlo SS, with no computer, emissions controls, or even a catalytic converter. It has a carburetor and burns fuel so inefficiently that another car could probably run off it’s exhaust gas.

I’ll be cruising around town in that during Earth Hour...and every light in my house will be on anyway, with the A/C set at 68, and maybe even a load of clothes in the dryer.

Take that, Mother Earth!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I'll have logs on the fire, a whiskey in one hand and a cigar in the other. If not finished yet, I'll be cleaning my guns. Maybe I'll have the plasma TV on too.

[glasseye]

Burning some old tires to ward off the darkness...

[nomad]

I`ll have every light in the house on and my three lamp, 250 watt work light on outside and pointed up just in case the eco freaks are renting satellite time.

[DJ MacWoW]

Dark? I have 80 acres. Wonder if I can get the local FD to do a controlled burn to get rid of brush and weeds on about 2 acres? Hmmm.

There should be a total blackout in the cities.
That will allow the looters plenty of time to
liberate the items they deserve by being poor.

[Carley]

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

Ahm turnin’ evra damn laht own in tha hause AYAND outsahd... pluggin’ my rechorg’bl battrys into mah fulash-lahts ‘n turnin’ dose own to... wa-heyell, ah may even turn mah core lahts own and lay own tha horn fer-a-whall... You?

[InvisibleChurch]

...cranking up some yoko Ono for my liberal neighbors

[PA Engineer]

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!

[Captain Peter Blood]

I will be doing the exact opposite and burn as much “DAMN” electricity as possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PISANO]

Politically correct, global warming, energy saving NONSENSE!!

[bobby.223]

rolling my own with the hand jive, .45acp and some nine milly.

[surfer]

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.

[Type Righter]

All lights, TVs, computers, washer, dryer, yard lights, & radios will be on!! Will also be baking choc chip & macadamia nut cookies, a chocolate cake and some walnut brownies!!! Will take a long a hot shower, too, while the cake is baking. :)
