Isn't a new light just going to end up costing that small town even more anyway? I'm surprised they want to spend the money.

No the power company will install the lights for free and the electric bill gets split by the people who are serviced from the pole that it is attached to, so I would have ended up paying for 1/4 of that. Like I said they would run out of lights long before I ran out of shotgun shells.
The lack of resource conservation was one of my points.

Round these parts the power companies serve all. There is no city/country split. Next I am going after the old ***** across the street that has my house lit up from all of her lights. She will be buying shades.

On the bright side, I have a smelly 911 and, if I stick with it - and I will - I'll have a license to fly equally smelly planes, but at a totally cooler level.
