8:30 that’s a strange time.

I put all my lights on at 8:00. :0)

We’re lit up light a Christmas tree:-)

On a related note - we spent today at a big scuba expo in NJ, as we’ve done for the past 7 years or so. Each year, there’s a children’s section where kids have drawn pictures related to oceans, fish, etc. This year, walking through that section, I was struck by the fact that virtually every drawing had to do with global warming & the imminent death of planet Earth. No more happy fish & dolphins - now it’s all gloom & despair. What a change, over the course of just a few years. An entire generation has been brainwashed. Sad.

Hilarious!

Up here, at the edge of the treeline near the Arctic Circle, the sun will still be up and shining. Sunset is officially about 9:20 p.m. tonight.

I think I’ll still turn on the lights, though. Just to do my part.

The Kentucky Wildcats are having a shooting blackout to celebrate Earth Hour. They’re about to choke away their #1 seed.

Bad day for Wildcats so far.

But it’s too cold.

The Capital is lit up like a Christmas tree - as it usually is this time of the evening. In fact the whole DC skyline is pretty bright tonight...

8:39 central time, neighborhood action report: about half the houses with porch lights/coach lights ablazing; about half totally dark.

However, a good fraction of those in the dark are foreclosed victims of the Obameconomy, so I think the good guys are in the lead here.

The builders of my house added a whole lot of high-powered outside lights all the way around the house.

Light bulb test in five minutes!

It’s hard to celebrate idiocy. I don’t give this much thought except I won’t power things I wouldn’t normally do so. I was driving for the first part of the hour before getting home and everything looked normal. I think a lot of this is media hype that few swallow.
