Re: Save The Night Sky!!!!

said by homebrewer:
As a computer professional and amateur astronomer I am all for any new lighting technology that will reduce light pollution. Ever see the poster of the USA at night? That's all wasted light being directed upward, which means more oil, coal and nuclear being used. Besides, sodium and mercury lights also affect RF frequencies. As well as your CD player and your radio and your toaster......

I've never seen the poster, but would like to see it to satisfy my curiosity. Do you have a link, or can you post a pic of it?
