Default Any one participate in "Earth Hour"?

like the title says, obviously your not shutting down your tanks for the hour or hours, but does anyone participate by reading a book for an hour versus watching tv, or turning off that light in the basement that you left on earlier? I'm not a hippie, just "gauging the interest" in it

The last 2 years my wife and I turn off the lights and go outside for a walk for an hour, with her being to pregnant to walk to far, we might read a book together tonight.

What will you do?
(and lets keep it positive )

I didn't know it was today :-/
We're pretty concious of conservation. I took care of recycling today and have been turning off lights not in use. I guess we'll go for a walk later too

I turned out the basement lights while I was watching a movie if that counts. I suppose the subs, amp and big screen probably had a negative effect though.

well think if you hadnt have turned them off they would still be usin juice while you watch a movie, so, I guess it helps

I'm just chilling enjoying the last bit of peace and quiet before the baby comes, researching sps, and chatting it up with all you
