Found the article (I was posting from my PDA earlier): http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/09/30/china-color-protest/
"The nighttime lights atop the Empire State Building are a source of visual pleasure but also of frequent mystery for New Yorkers. What was with all that red last Thursday? It was a nod to the 70th anniversary of The Wizard of Oz ruby slippers and all that. How about the green a few days before that? That was for the Muslim holiday of Id al-Fitr. If you wonder why the Empire State will be red and yellow Wednesday and Thursday nights, it is to honor the 60th anniversary of the Peoples Republic of China. Looked at another way, it is to honor the 60th anniversary of the Communist takeover." Until Later! C.
