Isn't "not attracting" different from "repelling"? Why would you carry around a LED light? Most people don't turn on huge lamps when they're enjoying the summer sky at night.

I have a mac mini adapt with eye-tv hooked up to my 47 inch flat screen. Great! Watched the season finale of Grey's Anatomy in HD last night :)

be sure that you are using FRESH baking soda. I know it might sound weird, but if you use flat baking soda from an already opened box the snickerdoodles become little flat disks instead of perfectl...

A 24x24 would be pretty good sized surface, but if you put two together you'd only have 12x24- so in essence you'd need four...
