Day 125 - Oakville - 8th December 2004 Here is the home movie of the house we saw with all the lights - House Movie. They are not all like this but every other house is covered in sparkly lights. The amount of money spent on this type of adornment can only be matched by the amount it costs to keep them lit for a period of 4 weeks. There is enough energy being consumed on this one decorative folly to power a small third world country for a year (or thereabouts). After spending money on exterminating spiders from the side of your house, this has to rate as the next best (worst) example of conspicuous over consumption so far.
