Well I for one agree with you and applaud you for going against the grain and being so adamant about your position.
Unfortunately, the city and property owners are moving more towards turning off lights from many major towers downtown. Ostensibly, the reason is to save power; but I think the real motivation is simply herd mentality: if you don't join with everyone else in making the city look dull and boring, then you'll be accused of being ostentatious.
