Blackout Day!

Great one!

What if we could rally everyone to turn their lights off for a whole day?! It would be fun and would save so much CO2! Use things like flashlights, candles, etc. Maybe turn it into a neighborhood sleepover...in the dark! Face it: if people lived like that for thousands of years, why can't we spare one day without electric lights?

(Sry, I posted something earlier like this...Ignore the other one)

Great one!

Back in June of 2006 we had a major flood in my town, because of this flood we were without power for two weeks. What I found amazing wasn’t that we found that we could survive without the power (having email with drawl not withstanding), but how quiet a town of 4000+ people could get. And something strange happened…. people had conversations with their neighbors! Not the normal chitchat and weather ones but real in-depth conversations.

You give me a day, I’ll flip off the breaker to my whole house, wich means ZERO electricity use for me, for a whole day. Sound good?
