Today I noticed one of those cranes in front of my house. I figured the town was trimming my palm tree, and thought nothing more of it. Went out to the front yard this evening after dark, and my entire front yard is lit up bright. They installed a friggin powerful street light on the power pole. That lovely darkness out front, from which to star gaze at night, is now gone. I can hardly make out a star or planet now. SOBs!
I'm tempted to get out a .22 with a scope and take care if it.
Could this be a cause of action, interfering with someone's enjoyment of their property?
Request a more directional bulb... I have seen people spray point the side of ground based lamps so the don't shine in the window.

Television and radio are most effective when people question little and think even less.
You think tha light's bad, you've heard about the fluoride in the water, right? !
LOL
Yes. I've been lucky enough to have never lived where the tap water is fluoridated. In the small town I live in now (and for more than 20 years), every time the Fluoride people come and do a presentation at a Town Hall meeting, they get booed down, and lose in a landslide. Folks here are Fluoride-wise.
You know it's a byproduct of aluminum smelting, right? If they didn't sell it to municipalities to put in the public water supply, they'd have to pay big money to dispose of it as a toxic waste substance per EPA regulations, which is what motivated them to sponsor all the research showing that it was like iodine in table salt, i.e., an additive that's a boon for public health instead of a toxic waste product.

Yep. They sell billions of dollars worth to municipalities.
This is also how we ended up with Alzheimers causing aluminum in deodorant. The aluminum industry was trying to come up with a use for scrap, and they figured by grinding it into micro particles and selling it to P&G to embed in deodorant, they could increase profits.
For the guy who has a shower gun and one in every room in the house and you didn't go out and investigate an afternoon of racket in your front yard? Off day?
