Awesome, Joe.

Hey, the other night, the local planetarium dude gave a talk. I asked about stargazing in town and he mentioned the silo effect - that if you stand in a silo, you have all that darkness immediately around you and you can see stars better. He suggested that in town one might find a place where you are surrounded by trees to block offending light, but still have a shot of sky overhead. That might work between tall city buildings, too.

Interesting. I may have to give it a try. The trick will be finding buildings that aren't too bright.

Banks aren't very bright these days. Find two stupid banks and stand between them.

(Oh, followed your link. I see what you mean. Sha-zam!)
