Scam

$10 for 2 damn minutes not worth it!

Used to be lengendary

Back in the day! This was THE PARTY TRICK of nyc. People were impressed by this!

Now there’s a usage fee every time.

Keep it invite only, but charge a subscription all access fee and then have fundraiser events.

It sucks now, and I rarely use it except as an expensive party trick

Not sure it works

Paid the $10 for the two minutes, and my efforts didn’t seem to make any difference in the lights on the building.

Please invite me

I am in nyc and live in Chicago and would love to show it off to family and friends.
