I agree that I think the whole thing is a big show. I think that people should make a difference everyday. The posters they had up in the building I work in were classic: 'Supporting Earth Hour to show what we can do.' If they can do it, why don't they do it more often? Although, I'm really not sure what a difference it would make. The Earth was around before us and will be here after us unless it gets smashed by a meteor or something. No amount of energy conservation will save that. Unless it is light sensored and by turning off the lights we'll be able to hide from it.
Where I work, the building gave away free light bulbs yesterday for the Earth hour. I'm going to try it out at 8:30 tonight. The whole idea is crazy and makes no difference just like the 'stick it to the man and don't purchase gas on such and such a date' day.
