    I was in Las Vegas last night and could see the entire Strip dim from my vantage point. It was quite a sight!

    Interesting point. I tend to look at this as a symbolic event, particularly because it occurs during night time (enhancing the visuals as the pictures show). Leaving the lights of on Saturday night is a minor inconvenience, but environmental change will most likely demand more.

    Thanks for bringing the environment to a sociological forum!
