[quote=Anonymous]I didn't know until I moved into our current neighborhood that you left the outside front door light on all night and on the weekends you always turned light on at the front of the house when people may be entertaining guests. A few weeks after we moved into our neighborhood, an older lady stopped by with the neighborhood directory and a nice potted plant. She gently explained to me that this was "done" in our neighborhood. By golly, I walked through the neighborhood the next Saturday night and saw that most people were following the practice she described. I began to do it and I noticed as new people moved in, they seemed to automatically do it. No one had to tell them. I was raised in a "turn out the lights, you are wasting electricity" house, and I had no clue of this practice. [/quote]
