They way I look at it is I celebrated Earth Hour between 2 am and 3 am. All my lights were off. The TV was off. The computer was on sleep.

"They way" was at the beginning of your sentence, so yes. Grammar Nazi's are not cool, what goes around comes around (Chofer).

Another process to champion and from which to create an entire industry, something to keep those who love process employed.

Also, yet another convention or conference is scheduled for this next week, some place for all the elitists to attend, traveling by jets, shuttling to and fro in limos and espousing their commitments over caviar, fine wine and slivers of Kobe beef.

Yeah, the world is coming to an end far sooner than anticipated but fret not, the process people will be busy to the end, making sure the conference tables are shaped just so and each name card is made from recycled money.

Eh, whatever.

I know someone with the last name of Chofer, and they pronounce like "Sha'-fay", so it took me a minute to figure out what a "Sha'-fay" was when I first read it, because I was pronouncing it in my head like their name.

So there you go. "The earth hour"

Way too much time spent on this.

When I started paying attention to global climate change some 40 years ago they were predicting that the increased energy retained by the atmosphere would result in more extreme weather. Judging by this last winter their predictions were correct. Early thaw in southern Alaska and an Easter snowstorm in the Northeast US and Atlantic Canada.

That is what I thought...

And actually we usually celebrate most nights between midnight and around 6am.
