    I decided to Spend this earth hour out and about in Sydney. Unfortunately I think I counted about 3 stores that had their lights off, and they were closed. Kind of disappointing how little Sydney gets behind an event.

    Come on, it's an empty gesture. Getting a law passed to mandate LED lightbulbs would be fare more useful and every hour would be "earth hour" at that point.

        Not too much. Work is piling up like a Microsoft bug list but I'm managing. Thinking I might need to go through to the States in a few months to do a major presentation which could be fun. How's life on your end?

            Kind of sad how people get behind a BS event like this and then think "I've done my part." Marc

              In SA it just gets done for us.  In January, we had up to three 2 hour planned outages a day.  Now we're down to one or two a week.

                Sounds energy consuming.... Have you made sure to power down for at least an hour each week?
