Instead of playing "lets shut the lights off and blog about it" how about we start REALLY investing in wind and solar power. Oh, doh, that would use that critical thinking crap again and not be as "cool" as our collective light blog 100% guaranteed one of these clowns hits a blog or twitter during that hour telling how cool they are for doing it. Then they'll probably tell tales of how cool it was to not use power for an hour and all the neat new things they learned to do in the dark.

You can tell where their focus really is from the first third of the page:
