Light It Up Night tonight!
Ian Sutherland — Sat, 03/29/2008 - 13:07
Tonight is Light it Up Night, where we celebrate the role of progress over the tyranny of Nature. Take a moment and reflect over how rotten life was just a couple of centuries ago, when disease and grime were rampant; when the choice of working even ten miles away from your home wasn't available; when goods and services were limited and expensive. Think of a time without ready supplies of information at your fingertips, when food preparation was time consuming and fraught with the peril of food-borne illnesses.
When there were good odds that your children would die before they were teenagers.
So in honor of the great progress that we have made in the last two hundred years, Light Up! everything in your home! Go for a drive in your SUV! Rejoice in your own personal power- power that would be the envy of kings just a scant couple of centuries ago.....
Tonight is Light It Up Night! Celebrate!
