"Across the globe today people will be turning off all their lights for an hour starting at 8:30pm local time tonight for the World Wildlife Fund's annual Earth Hour campaign."Right on cue, like some modern day Zeus, the Worldwide Fund for Nature, more commonly known as the British monarchy, has issued this démarche to their loyal subjects: Let there Be Darkness. Is it any wonder that Mick Jagger was knighted by what he too truly proclaimed to be Her Royal Satanic Majesty?
Eratosthenes first measured the circumference of the earth from the shadows cast by the sun. Today, humanity's fitness to survive will be measured by our ability to conquer that same thermonuclear fusion that casts those shadows. Thus, Prometheus will truly be unbound.
