With ya on this one. I enjoy the green night skies too. Believe it or not, some people think urban America is the way nature planned it. Been living there so long they can't comtemplate anything else. Pavement, wall-to-wall people, and McDonalds becomes reality. I feel sorry for them. I'll take the moonlight over the white mountains, stars, green night skies, and wolves howling any night.
Had a neighbor in sutton once start a petition to have the prison reduce light pollution. I thought he was crazy then, but now I see what he is talking about.
When I lived in NM, my nearest neighbor was 1/4 mile away. They had one of those stupid mecury vapor "street lights" in their yard and I swear it lit up my bedroom like daylight! I couldn't believe how bright it was.
When I bought our new house in the MN woods, one of the first things I did was shoot out the damn M/V light some idiot had hardwired on a post. Now I have my stars back.
