True! I have walked through the forest by nothing but starlight. It's fun and a little spooky.

Absolutely, and I can do you one better, how I actually read a newspaper in a car on a moonless night traveling along a high desert road from Aman to Aquaba Jordan. I was amazed it was so bright, that I just thought it might be fun to try, and amazingly I could read the newspaper.

I feel sorry for the city dwellers, who never see even a single star, except in a sidewalk.
