Earth Hour During PAX East

I don't know if it's come up for anyone else but we usually try very hard every year to participate in earth hour. As gamers we use a lot of power every day and we use that as a chance to turn everything, EVERYTHING off in the house, amazing how quiet it gets.....
Anyway, I noticed that earth hour happens to fall in the evening of the saturday of pax. are we going to be doing anything to mark this?
Suggestions?

I think the logistics for shutting down PAX with 40K+ people for 1hr because of some arbitrary "holiday" would be useless if not dangerous. Now if you want to set something up go ahead just don't expect exhibitors and people holding panels to turn off anything.
<Qs23> I just need to get my dicks in a row
<prox> i work for dicks
#paforums_pax, all about the dicks.
From what I read PAX without power would be like soap without the rope. Or pie without the coolwhip
Why are putting so much emphasis on the H?

Not that this is true for all individuals mind you, but from what I've seen, it would be like and abusive husband having an "I love you hunny hour," where they don't beat their wife for 60 minutes.
You mean like Wil WHeaton?
Lazer tag?
f that. I think during that hour im not going to recycle my energy drink cans and turn on more power draining stuff out of spite.

we should kick puppies and throw kittens in the shower while we're at it too.
HELL YEAH
Can we club seals too?
Earth is fine, and we aren't turning off shit.

I had a roommate a couple years ago that, when earth hour hit, demanded we shut off all the lights.
He then proceeded to light around a dozen candles all over the house (oblivious to any irony), and when that was done, went to go take a long twenty-minute hot shower because "well now i'm bored, there's not much else to do".
I wanted to facepalm hard enough to make my hand pass through my head, I'll tell you that.

All of the lights will be turned off in my hotel room because I'll BE AT PAX.
Agreed and thanks lol
Reminds me that I need to make a Boston Oil Party event for PAX.
Its never fun explaining a joke.
A Boston Oil Party makes fun of the Boston Tea Party where they threw it in the waters. Well, it is very bad to throw oil(like motor oil) into the ocean and since the discussion was about doing unearthly things on Earth Day...you should now understand my double entendre.
I liked the Revere beach mention better... Though you gotta worry about Hep-B from all the discarded hypo's...
If you guys see me ask me to say Coolwhip in Stewie's voice. I have been told by sober and drunk people that my impression is spot on.
I also like doing the whole. "lois lois lois mom mom mom mamma mamma mum mum ma ma" thing.
