Can't; I have to study.

On the contrary, all the lights in my house are on.

I never even heard of that till now. I'm not really in the mood for a blackout though.

And I'm proud to say that I participated. Because of me, I saved a few leave on one tree.

Check out the Google page at www.google.com

They turned there's to black also. Just one hour out of the year isn't going to kill anyone.

We really should do this more often. It also would be really cool to make it illegal to idle the engine for more than a minute or 2. It bugs me when there is a truck or a bus just standing there , engine on, doing nothing. . .

I"d rather have a good majority of home lights go out and pass on the trucks and buses. There are wayyyy more home light energy being used then there are vehicles. But I get your point.

Energy and polution are equally as big a problem.

I would have participated, but I didn't know about it.

I was at a gig with my lights off at home.
