Hi MineralMan-

You would have reason to be concerned if people were launching professional-grade fireworks from their backyards. When professionals conduct displays like the Macy's Fourth of July fireworks, they launch them from barges out in the middle of the East River, for example. Yours was an interesting post.

Thanks. I was quite surprised the first 4th of July by just how much was happening. I stay at home that night, now, ready to extinguish any "errors" made by my neighbors.

I'm torn on this kind of thing. On one side, I like to see people exercizing their freedoms. On the other, they're doing things that put my property at risk. But, so it goes...lots of things happen that shouldn't. Drawing the line is the difficult thing.
