Very interesting documentary, congratulations!. I am a fine arts painter and an amateur astronomer from Spain. But I live part of the year in Buffalo, NY. Also I was at the 80's living in Chicago and I went to Sant Paul for camping week end. The light pollution has increased a lot since then besides the leds that is part of the problem.
