But there are noise ordinances. ;-)
And I would be sawing down trees to make such things, not cutting apart the desks to destroy them. A nice teak desk looks pretty good and lasts a long, long time.
I'm not against the old. I'm not against curbing pollution - I am against those things that are misguided. The only pollution the lights out thing will influence is light pollution. The power plants will not burn less - they must keep the power on demand.
Think with me Steve....what if Google advocated EVERYONE spending an hour to invent a new form of power, or a new invention to tap power from the seas or earth? That would be FAR, FAR, FAR MORE productive and make a real difference in the right direction.
Turning out the lights and sitting in darkness or lighting a candle is a symbol. Not a good one. It's like riding a horse and parking your car in the garage or shutting off your plumbing and returning to the outhouse.
I believe these folks don't want progress or care a whit about global warming - they merely get off on the idea of making the world take a step backwards.
