Labor’s blunder-prone future environment minister is impressed by Earth Hour:
Mr Garrett said the act of turning off the lights for an hour would ricochet around the country and the world for years.
Mr Garrett said the act of turning off the lights for an hour would ricochet around the country and the world for years.
And then it would (to borrow a phrase from the great Tony Orlando) stretch all the way to the universe and fill up the black hole in space.

Posted by eeniemeenie on 2007 03 31 at 06:47 PM • permalinkJeez. I turn out the lights every night for at least six hours. Where are my fawning admirers?
Posted by Andrea Harris, Administrator on 2007 03 31 at 07:04 PM • permalinkIt sounds like Mr. Garrett wants to be the shit heard ‘round the world.
Posted by andycanuck on 2007 03 31 at 09:10 PM • permalinkSilly Cate embraces “thoughtful darkness,” (a marriage in the offing?) and earth hour organisers want to make it an annual event. What’s wrong with monthly, or weekly, or daily for that matter? Better yet, switch off the electricity at sunset and fire it up again at sunrise. Who needs electricity anyway, when there’s a perfectly serviceable cave I can sell you for a very moderate sum?
Surely, he means it will echo in the ‘mindspace’ of Tracee for eternity. No?

One piddling little hour? Ha! I can beat that - I’ve had all my lights off since I went to bed last night (this morning) at 3 AM. As it’s now 3:16 PM, that’s a whole twelve hours without lights. Gaia had better appreciate this huge sacrifice, the ungrateful bitch.
