Back Yard Smoke:

I'm wondering if anyone else is bothered by the seemingly recent trend of back yard fire pits?

When my neighbors start a fire in thier back yard pit as they've done today, my house immediatly fills with smoke. You would think that with the warm summer day's upon us that a back yard fire would be unecessary if not counter productive. When we smell smoke we have to scramble and close all the windows and doors, on a day like today this seems ludicrouse.

With the current EPA attitued toward fireplaces in individuale homes how is it that you can't go into your locale hardware store or Home Depot without seeing these fire place pits on display for the summer sales.

Does anyone else have problems with this?

Are there any local ordinances related to this topic?

Street Light Antennas

I've noticed what look like big WiFi antennas hanging from the street lights on the College Terrace. Does anyone know what these are for or who is installing them?
