If you're talking about the B&W image, most of that is clouds ... you can see them off the coast as well. The color image is a more accurate representation of the actual light pollution.

Looking at that last map Atlanta, Greenville, and Charlotte are sprawling closer than any towards each other.

Definitely bigger than Savannah from that vantage point. I'm more excited Augusta and Columbia growing toward each other.

Why? It consists of basically a bunch of cookie-cutter, sprawling development.

I don't understand why this seems to be so important for Augusta. Columbia really couldn't care less.

The majority of people in Augusta don't care either... The comment you responded to is around two weeks old, and you're the first person to continue the discussion...

None of the people living in Augusta decided to respond to the potential of it happening anytime soon.
