I awoke this morning to my Sunday edition of the Star Tribune and a great article about light pollution. I thought others might have an interest. You can read the article here http://www.startribune.com/stories/462/5083700.html or here http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6483940/.

Thank you, I enjoyed the article. Hope you don't mind if I forward the link to some of the IDA members in my astronomy club.

"Now astronomers, lighting engineers and highway and traffic safety consultants are coming together to try to develop national lighting standards".

Let's hope this catches on, with common sense lighting.

Thanks for the link.
