Yes, I do.

Answer 4

UK make a note of the number painted on the streetlight (each one has one) and call your local Highways Agency (sometimes called CLARENCE)

No can see the stars without light pollution, mind you need a big torch to find the dog when he goes walkabouts in the garden.

Answer 9

NOPE.

Answer 10

Yes, terrible light pollution if i want to go star gazing

Answer 11

Hello D, I have a lamplight outside my window.

Answer 12

What are street lights?  I don't think I have ever seen one (I live out in the countryside).

Answer 13

Yes.  It seems unlikely that several bulbs would fail at once.  The circuit protection (fuse, breaker) may have blown, or high voltage might have caused coincident failures.

Answer 14

Thankfully no !!-and we don`t want them either.

Answer 15

Yea but they get run over all the time down here.

It was as if I could see every star in the sky - and the Milky Way.

Yes plenty.

Answer 20

To many, the light pollution is over the top, can read a book in the back bedroom

Answer 21

yes i have them ..

Answer 22

yes and all working

Answer 23

Well, we bought our house here in Cyprus just over four years ago.....and we finally got proper street lamps about a month ago........but I guess thats pretty quick considering we only got our street sign last week!!

I think i preferred it without street lighting though....it was lovely to be able to see the clear starry night sky....street lighting spoils all that!

Answer 24

yeah and every lamp is working except for the 1 outside my house!

Answer 25

Yes, we have 1 street light on our road for every six houses or so.  They are located on the side of the road opposite to the city water lines, closest to the high school.

Answer 26

Every 2 Blocks we have one where i live near Chicago.

Answer 27

haha um yeah...

Answer 28

Yes unfortunately so. I hate the sickly orange glow they emit. Fortunately the city I live in (Leeds, UK) is in the process of replacing all streetlights with a new, more energy efficient bulb. Even better, it's not orange! It's a soft white light, which reduces light pollution and is obviously not as depressing. Won't see 'em round my area for a year or so (I live in the student area) but I'm savouring the anticipation.
