What do you think about the idea? Has anyone tried it before?
Good idea , but i think they would just call the police .

Basically they are committing an unthinking annoyance while you are doing something calculated to course offense.

Also its not a good way to get on with the neighbours.

My neighbour is typical. They always forget and leave the light on. During the recent lunar eclipse they came out to watch. I had my nexstar 11 set up in my back yard and had the lights on for a few minutes while i tried to get the camera attached.

They asked me to turn the lights off even though they could see what i was doing............

go figure
