Lightswitch
jam - Here
is a simple jam/social experiment you can try at your school, restroom, or
any public place; When no-one is around, take a roll of electrician's tape
and tape the lightswitches in the 'off' position. Now sit back and watch peoples'
reactions. I find that for the most part, people won't even question the tape
and will just shrug and assume that the switch is broken, it's amazing what
humans are just willing to blindly accept. For added effect (or maybe not)
add an "Out of Order" sign under the switch.
This jam is great
to try because it is easy, fun, not illegal, and conserves electricity, try
it!
