| He wandered in cyberspace looking for ukcb but encountered dark black holes. In despair but keeping faith, he came across an abandoned place and found a clue.... From this he had directions to a place with a few signs of life, he went to this place but couldn't cross an invisible barrier, so he sent out an s.o.s and later joined his fellow comrades, he rejoiced! Today he found the invisible barrier was back, his s.o.s had sent out crossed signals, in despair, he returned to the abandoned place in the hope of discovering more clues, searching and searching..... It's so sad to be Lost in Space..... | |

| Indeed, that is the niagara falls from a upper view. to the far left is the bridal vale falls -there is a small island called goat island in there. A farmer once upon a time actually raised goats on the island because those goats had nowhere to run- the current is so strong there is no surviving in the water. The upper view is good. Played in that area as kid- The lights have always been provided by the Canadians. Niagara Falls canada has grown up into a right fine city with a pretty impressive sky line. Actually it dwarfs the American side. The Canadian falls or the horseshoe falls is the grand jeffery spec-! tacular view. Actually it is impossible to take a picture of the whole of the Niagara Falls -it is just too big to capture in one photo. Can we try the upper view without the lights and see how it appears. I like the natural visual. colored lights as it says in the song can hyptnotize.American Woman by the Guess Who-,a Canadian group . Now you know what inspired those words to that song ! Colored lights can hyptnotize ,sparkel someone elses eyes . Ontario Canada ! What yer seeing is the grand old back yard that stretchs far and wide in 2 countires. It never ceased to amaze me how far we went on those bicycles ! Oh but that was sooooo many years ago ! The wonders of youth indeed. ! And the magic ! | |

| Thankyou Lady G. The piccy is just picture perfect ! It shall be a grand Christmas indeed !. Another point to fact about the Niagara Falls is that it seems to have somewhat of a hypnotic effect on viewers when standing above the falls at the verious observation points looking down at the water flowing over the falls. And in some or even many case forinstances even luring -yes there are those who are tempted to simply fall into it. Many tourist have attested to that in their viewing experiences. The Falls area is a great place to observe people,travelers in sociological observations. The force of water flowing over seems to draw everything in and down.Everybody too. The falling waters are also a stimulent to the mind-the brain activity. Naturally there is considerable power in the flow of the waters.It is something one atones to. Such as it is in a trip down memory lane. and a gand old trip is is. | |

| Oh well, that an easy one- Over in Niagara Falls Canada ,the parks department which is run by the providence of course provides the lighting-always has,. Over on the American side I dare say they are too cheaply stupid to do anything that interesting or entertaining for the visitors.
Have you ever seen out door television camara set up with lighting- those bib round canister lights ? Used on movie sets and theaters ? Well the Canadians have a rather impressive and huge I dare say lighting set up crreated exclusively for Niagara Falls park. The same as traditional Christmass lighting -on a large scale-tall building and such- the lighting rotates and the colors change from red to blue to yellow to green to multi color creating a light show over the falls in the evening starting at about 10:00 PM. Of course the light show is part of the evening entertainment for the visitors.
Understand mind yer, I'm operating out of me memory and if recon correctly I don't even care to remember how many years ago it was I lived there fer fear of realizing me age !
However as I recall, the lighting set up looks like what seems to me to closely resemble a series of signal lights you would see on a war ship or a merchant ship-sea going vessels-, with each varying color lights -what you call distance high power lighting. Those lights are set up in series ,say 6 reds 6 blues 6 greens 6 yellows such as it goes in the color spectrum. The lighting can rotate or be positioned to just about any disired point if the Niagara Falls or all of it for than matter.
Yes as children we invsstigated those lights and the parks workers on our bicycles- indeed going where the tourist don't go or can't go was a favorite pass time ! Actually it is as interesting or more interesting as finding out how it all works behind the sceans of net work television. The camaras the lights and those egos !
Those lighting operators actually have stories to tell for those who dare to venture down to their work stations. It helps if you pay no mind at all to the restricted zone signs !

| The city of Nagara Falls New York for about 100 years there abouts was wall to wall factories. In those what they thought were the good productive prosperous years the city itself was more or less ruled by those coperatons-the corperations were more or less kings. The tax base or the tax payers really couldn't have cared less about the visitors-tourists. and tax dollars propositioned to be used for making the city more so inviting to the tourists and the tourist industry was always voted down. Canada on the other hand got way ahead of the business of the tourist industry which is big business by all standards of measure, and don't you know Niagara Falls Canada grew up to become a world class city. Niagara falls New York-well the corperations all moved over to India and other such places on the globe-all the factory jobs dried up and a population of what was once about 110,000 reduced down to about 25,000 people or less.
The up side is the lakes and the rivers were cleaned up by the governemnt-free now of corperate factory pollution- those scumbags trashed out not just the area but the world . It was a crime once upon a time to say anything bad about those god damned corperations -for it was they ,those bastards that were the providers of bread and butter on the tables. After ever war the government cancels all orders than orders the corperate stock piles ,bought and paid for to be gotton ridd off. The governemnt always pays those corperations to get ridd of the stock piles. And the counties and the states let those bastards bury the good any damn where they please because those corperations are kings in the ruling sense of the title.
Those corperations are gone now and there is a very small part of planet that is truely better off now rather they know it not.
