    Well let her know the truth on how coal fired power plants work then and why this was a waste of time. Knowledge is power. The key to lowering emissions lays down the lazy and even xenophobic ignorant paths.

    You also might want to brush up on some of the perks of living in the 21st century, that being the technological achievement of artifical light. I for one am not regressing back to an era of pre-electricity because some greenies with an $ agenda $ are spreading lies.

    I was in Melbourne last night and not that many lights seemed to be off. I felt sorry for some of the workers in the South Gate food court because they were all standing around with no customers because they all closed in the minimal lighting.

    Really? Huh. There was a concert in Fed Square and everything... but that would explain the half hearted approach.

    Well my brother is convinced we will all be wiped out by a meteor in 2023. So he didn't even bother.

    Paul, the Victorian Government got behind it, but the City of Melbourne didn't actually sign up to it.
