- @jjprojects Sounds cool, as long as you keep the headlights and running lights off for the hour!
# - Apple Software Update on Windows (installed with iTunes for my iPod) has just offered me Safari browser (claiming to be fastest) I will take #
- Earth Hour: Goofy idea. Turning out our lights for 1 hr does not reduce the amount of power generated; base load still has to be maintained. #
- I routinely follow my family around turning off all lights in the house not in use. I pay the power bill, so I actively reduce power use. #
- @warzabidul At least it gives people something to feel good about while they remain blissfully unaware of magnitude of coming energy crisis. #
- @aDB yukyukyuk. I remember some old movie where a woman drills a hole in her fridge door so she can discover if the light really went off. #
- @notaphysicist What ya got in them thar tins? Beans? Spam? Spill the beans!
# - @madpilot If that was co-ordinated with power generation utilities in a meaningful way, it might actually make a tangible difference. #
- Slow day on Weewar, not many turns coming up in my ten games. Anyone want to invite me to a 10 minute turnabout 1-on-1 game? #
- "BHP Billiton will need nearly half of South Australia’s current electricity supply to power its vastly expanded Olympic Dam … mine" #
- Australia’s aluminium smelting industry consumes over 25,000 GWh of electricity pa. in Australia, almost 15 per cent of all electricity used #
- Reading my Accounting text book for an hour for Earth Hour. Using an incandescent desk lamp because it keeps me warm as well as illumined. #
- @warzabidul I tried to sleep with the moon once but she showed me her dark side and I then was too scared to go through with it. #
- @RuthEllison Its great to do that, for exercise, fuel savings, and depending on your situation, it can also be faster than driving, parking. #
- I’m taking a nap until Earth Hour finishes here in Sydney, then Im going to set fire to my huge wood pile in back yard. Yeah! Just kidding. #
- Gently grooving to an old Sting double LP "Nothing Like The Sun" obtained last month. Gotta love scoring quality vinyl for $1 per record. #
- @Extremo Any chance you can step closer to your unfortunate and untimely demise in our Weewar game before you retire?
# - @salsb Keep going! I made it 7 days recently before I cracked and bought 2 * 200g packs of Lavazza, 1 4/5 strength for AM and 1 3/5 for PM. #
- @WarrenWhitlock Tried to sign up for it, but my Visa credit card was rejected, error was address didn’t match the card. I checked it twice. #
- "The greenback is garbage. It’s managed by a group of men who intend to print so many of them that the value of America’s debts disappears" #
- "…in a blizzard of green and white….It’s fictional money tied up in the fictional value of fictional financial assets." Dan Denning, DR #
- Do not buy gold to make money, buy it to not lose more money. #
