Against global warming hysteria?

Here's what James Taranto suggests:
    Reader, if you are against global-warming hysteria, high taxes, socialized medicine and a weak foreign policy, Sunday is your day. Show how you feel about the issues by turning on your lights in the evening and leaving them on until you go to bed. If you go out for a drive after dark, make sure you turn your headlights on too.

    Granted, the EarthHour people have a head start on us. They started planning this months ago, whereas we're giving you all of 48 hours notice. Yet we think the outlook is bright for this effort. Tell your friends, tell them to tell their friends, and so on, and we'll bet millions of people across the country will turn their lights on Sunday night.

    If no one will listen to the silent majority, let's at least make sure they see us.
We don't waste electricity willy nilly, and I go to bed early, but I could leave the TV on.

Regardless of who turns them on or off, we know the greens will still be using their computers even if they turn out the lights, and that it will be declared a huge success.
