My family has gotten in to the habit of leaving all the Christmas lights
on all
the time (indoor - tree, garlands), including overnight. For the magical
feeling it's supposed to invoke, and wanting to wake up to the sight of
the lit
tree.

Any danger to this?

Thanks,
Banty


two dangers at least

1) this danger will become apparent on your next electricity bill, unless
you have averaged billing

2) the danger of being disappointed if expected magical feelings aren't
invoked

beyond that, seems christmas trees can catch fire, resulting in destruction,
and maybe even death

maybe christmas is about risking death while enriching energy companies and
keeping fire departments busy
