A protest run in Germany, Switzerland and Austria is set to have millions of people to all turn their lights out at 8pm to make a point about energy conservation and global warming.
Experts however are concerned that millions of people turning all their lights out and then back on again at the same time may cause a power surge and knock out all of Europes power. I think this is probably scare mongering to make people not do it so they can get a bigger check at the end of the month.
One things for certain, if the power isn't back on for the fight tonight, then World War 3 might start with an English invasion of Germany....

Nothing. Not even a flicker. I hate these sensationalists who fool us into thinking something, ANYTHING, is going to happen. They get us all riled up and then BAM, nothing happens.
Disappointed.-
