    Maybe it’s just me, but I kinda like the plain white lights no matter what time of the year it is….

    It’s not just you, John, I like the white lights all year, too.

    link fixed. thanks for the heads-up.

    (f.w.i.w., our co-op in east lansing was profiled by the campus newspaper for having left our xmas lights on well into the spring; which is partly why I’m eager to quash the notion that leaving decorations up is a surging trend that started in seattle this year.)
