This makes me wonder whether SJAA (and other clubs) should not use
their "observatory fund" to purchase a small piece of property
somewhere dark before all the parks get closed... This way, there
would be no need to fight a constant battle with the state, county,
city, etc.

Just my $0.02...

Cheers!
