Earth Hour

The lights on the Las Vegas Strip were turned off for a hour last night. All the major casinos took part in Eath Hour. It was very eerie seeing no lights on the Strip.

Strip no lights

Usually the Strip is so bright that it burns out your retinas. As you can see, all the major casinos just don't look the same without their neon glow.

MGM off

Where is the green of MGM Grand?

NY NY lights out

And the bright skyline of the New York New York?

I'm unsure what amount of good came from Earth Hour. I personally did not see any significant change to the Strip other than it being darker. I did see a one hippie gathering which I haven't seen since my days in Oregon.

You can see a few more Earth Hour photos on my flickr
