The space pics from last year are pretty cool. And, there is a registrable difference for the power companies - at least here in the land of oz. BTW - I'm not affiliated with WWF at all. I am just frustrated with the greenies pushing for cleaner power but blocking nuclear energy at every turn.

Doesn't hurt. Really, if a gazillion people turn off their lights for an hour, it would probably be noticed on the electric companies' records. I think it would be cool to see 'lights-out' from space. As far as changing the world, well, we live in apathy. Yesterday, yet another study showed that eating dead animals can increase your risk of cancer and/or heart disease by ~20%, and near 50% for women. Will people stop eating death? No. Well, maybe some will. If you couldn't tell, I'm a vegan. I applaud their efforts. Doesn’t hurt.
