Yes, heard about that on NPR this morning   Hmm, just went there and now it's black - but it wasn't when I checked it earlier.

All sorts of places are supposed to turn out the lights for an hour - Sydney Opera House did it last night at 8 PM.  I think the time in the US is supposed to be 8 PM local?  I'm not sure.

turn all my lights out, every one of them, at 10PM tonight and not turn them back on 'till 6AM tomorrow. That should make me good to go for the next eight years.
