[va-richmond-general] Re: Night Sky Light Pollution

I have emailed the other RAS (Richmond Astronomical Society) about light
pollution and birds. Light pollution is of considerable concern to RAS*,
since it interferes with seeing the stars. We will see if anybody knows
about the problem there.

Hi Robin,

Have her email me and I'll put her in touch with the person that was 
responsible for getting such an ordinance passed in Powhatan.  That 
individual is a very active member of the International Dark Sky 
Association and lives in Powhatan.  Am confident she would be glad to help.

Best,
Bob
