In 2006 this blog was instrumental in getting the Empire State Building to shine in Mardi Gras colors over New York as a salute to the folks impacted by Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. My official positive comment on why the Empire State Bldg ignored our request in 2007 is, "Our request came in too late for the ESB to process our request so lets get an early jump on 2008!"

The ESB asks for a formal request to be FAXed or emailed back. I filled out the paperwork for 2006, it doesn't take too long and the folks still rebuilding after storms in Louisiana will feel remembered on Fat Tuesday!
