Here in old-old-timey Europe (London), these signs (and others like the green cross on pharmacies) are an increasing scourge approaching epidemic proportions. Never mind street lights - shop signs are ruining the night skies.

What do you know of the sky in the UK? How was the eclipse by the way?

:)

Just kidding, I was just too disappointed not to be able to see anything.

Apparently there was an aurora borealis visible over Europe few nights ago, but I couldn't see it because it was outshined by the city's aurora commercialis.

Aurora negotialis would be more correct, but I really love this expression!

A hard choice between something that is more correct and something that is more recognizable to a person who (like myself) doesn't know latin very well ;).
