Earth Hour - check


Ty and I took part in Earth Hour on Saturday, and I have to tell you, I feel pretty good about it. It’s an important cause. At first, as 8 p.m. was approaching, we were both hesitant to stop what we were doing and shut it all down (in fact, we actually asked each other – what are we going to do? Should we go out for dinner? Does eating out constitute an earth-friendly activity? Should we play crib by candlelight instead?) but as we turned off the lights, the television, the computer, we realized just how nice it was to have an un-interrupted hour of just talking and lounging.
Go earth, go.
Listening to talk radio this morning, heard a looo-ser of a guy talking about how not only did he not participate in earth hour, but he actually intentionally turned on more lights. Excuse me? Really? I get not backing the cause; I understand not participating. But negative participation? Do not get even one bit.
