Many of the major landmarks in the city went dark last night & I
captured this before & after sequence:

This was inspired by an event in Australia... turn out the lights for an
hour to rais awareness of energy conservation. We're going to try again
in March.

Yes, very impressive. Just like every other North American city.
1950s-style street lights spraying most of their light into the sky,
enegy-consumtive high pressure sodium because the gays don't like the
orange colour of low pressure, efficient sodium lights, office
buildings lit all night, every room, tennis courts with 100,000 watts
of lights empty, on until midnight, auto dealerships with 5000
incandescent bulbs. This "hour with lights out" is PURE B.S., but it
appeals to the sheep.

Nice shot though.

Energy use awareness is hardly a "liberal" issue.

Nice series, Paul.

San Francisco is the heart of liberalism. Turning out some lights for a
few hours serves no useful purpose. It's symbolism over substance. Why
not float some candles down a river and ring some bells too?

Terrific inspiration, thank you.
Turned mine off for an hour last night.
Now I feel very good about myself.
I'm a sensitive and caring person, maybe even a little elite now.
And superior to most. I wish there was a colored bracelet that I could now
wear with pride.

It takes a "real American" to be devisive- eh Strat? The Western
forest fires and the permanent
loss of nearly 50% of the of the burnt land and the severe drought in
half of Georgia are all
"liberal" issues- eh Strat?

The fires in Southern California right now are a result of the greeners
not allowing crews to go in and thin dead trees and debris. But then,
if you're stupid enough to build your house on the edge of a cliff,
you've got more than fires to worry about.
