Every light in our place is on. We set 3 timers so we wouldn’t forget. Hope at least one lib drives up our rural Vermont road to see the lights. My motto is “annoy a lib today.”

Sorry for the vanity post, but please join me in turning every light on in your house, your neighborhood, your out houses or whatever. What better way to celebrate EARTH HOUR? The "progressives" would love us to live in their 12th century vision of Utopia, let's show them what we think. Let's vow to make next year one these communist, Marxist, pseudo environmentalist will never forget. Drill, baby, Drill but in the meantime burn a few bucks to annoy them!

I love it! We've got all the lights blazing and 2 TVs going here in Connecticut. LOL ;-D

The reason to do this is not to annoy them.

But rather to show that we believe the answer to the world's problems is not to turn out the lights sit in the dark and go back to 3rd world lifestyles, but to find ways to make sure that energy is plentiful and cheap for both this generation and future generations.

Make sure all of them are incandescent bulbs...I have been stocking up on them. I almost have a whole closet full. They go on sale at Kroger all the time for 88 cents....I would suggest everyone stock up.

My apartment overlooks downtown Cincinnati and all the buildings are just as fully lit as they were at 8pm.

Since I’m an alive & thriving creature of the Earth, I’ll “celebrate” my existence, by turning on MY hard-earned lights.

There was a guy who posted a photo on here last year for Earth Hour—I think he was standing in front of his house with Christmas lights lit—it was hilarious. Will be doing my part in a half hour. I’m sure the neighbors will notice since we are usually quite frugal about light usage.
