Mes Empire State ...
Aixi es com estava il.luminat l'Empire State ahir. He investigat una mica el perque dels canvis en la il.luminacio i aixo es el que he trobat:
"By 1976 the building's lighting scheme took a more artistic turn. In that year red, white, and blue lights celebrated the nation's bicentennial. Blue and white were used when the Yankees won baseball's World Series in 1977. The tradition has intensified and diversified. Sometimes the lights change on a daily basis to reflect current events and holidays. Orange for Halloween; green on Saint Patrick's Day. But in the spring and autumn, when birds migrate, the lights are turned off to keep from disturbing their route."
