everything here is new
And automated.
Walking out of a building late at night and having the overhead lights automatically turn on and then back off as you pass is a bit disconcerting.

Makes you wonder if you’re being ‘tageted’ doesn’t it!
Targeted… dammit…
Think of how my grandparents felt when the Gov’t made electricity available to them in the early ’20s in the savage wilds of So. Dak. My dad said Grampa cried the first time he turned on the lights in the barn. Grandma did the same when she turned the lights on in the kitchen. They were both born in Norway and had never had electric lights anywhere they’d lived until then. They’d seem ’em in town and on the ship and trains. Pretty much like when I saw my first Teevee at the age of 8. Impressed, I was. That wore off in a matter of days and I went back to torturing my sisters and fishing. Mostly fishing.

It never bodes well in the movies.
