Nah.....light pollution is a problem here too..don't fergit..New Yawk city is
only about 10 or so miles as the crow flies to the north of me..and even
without that, I have lots of light pollution here. I only go out on clear
cool nights, summer is the worse time to view, the humidity etc. screws up
the viewing. AND I have a damn street light right at the end of my driveway
in my southern view..aaarrrghh. Messes with the western view too!
