Earth Hour 2013



It's Earth Hour tonight, when all worshipers of Blessed Gaia are urged to switch off Thomas Edison's Instrument of Satan and sit smugly in the dark for 60 self-righteous minutes while the utilities fume over the damages caused by the spiking domestic demands.  To mark the occasion  we present our nomination for the theme song for the event.




So, turning off the lights involves turning on a lot more lights so people can boogie? Something's wrong here.

Sorry, lads, but if you're really serious about this, you shouldn't be switching off lights, you should be promoting fracking and a massive expansion of nuclear power. But that's a bit too much like progress for some tastes.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
