...that would be one thing. But in LA you could kill 70% of the lights and still not see anything except maybe the north star and the moon (smog permitting).

It's all about training people to feel guilty and brainwashing children to think that global warming is able to be changed by man - which it isn't, because the changes we have observed are clearly caused by solar variance.

Besides, my home can be seen from space, all night-every night, all paid for every month. This is my contribution to all those extraterrestrial astronomers looking with scopes at the dark side of our world and like something to focus on.

;-)

PS
I just have to get in the SUV, grab some field glasses, and travel further out into the desert for a real show that would make almost any astronomer, asides perhaps an Australian bushman, insanely envious.
